> Deduplicating backup tool.

> Creates local or remote backups that are mountable as filesystems.

Initialise a (local) repository:

borg init {path/to/repo_directory}

Backup a directory into the repository, creating an archive called "Monday":

borg create --progress {path/to/repo_directory}::{Monday} {path/to/source_directory}

List all archives in a repository:

borg list {path/to/repo_directory}

Extract a specific directory from the "Monday" archive in a remote repository, excluding all `*.ext` files:

borg extract {user}@{host}:{path/to/repo_directory}::{Monday} {path/to/target_directory} --exclude '{*.ext}'

Prune a repository by deleting all archives older than 7 days, listing changes:

borg prune --keep-within {7d} --list {path/to/repo_directory}

Mount a repository as a FUSE filesystem:

borg mount {path/to/repo_directory}::{Monday} {path/to/mountpoint}
