most recent archive. Note that "data" implies "archives".
example:
- repository
- archives
check_repositories:

consistency checks. Handy in case some of your repositories are very large, and
so running consistency checks on them would take too long. Defaults to running
consistency checks on all repositories configured in the location section.
example:
- user@backupserver:sourcehostname.borg
check_last:
type: int
desc: Restrict the number of checked archives to the last n. Applies only to the
"archives" check. Defaults to checking all archives.

run. IMPORTANT: All provided commands and scripts are executed with user permissions of
borgmatic. Do not forget to set secure permissions on this configuration file (chmod

shell injection or privilege escalation.

desc: |
Password with which to connect to the database. Omitting a password
will only work if PostgreSQL is configured to trust the configured
username without a password, or you create a ~/.pgpass file.
example: trustsome1
format:
type: str
enum: ['plain', 'custom', 'directory', 'tar']
desc: |
Database dump output format. One of "plain", "custom", "directory",
