          The keyfile which associates this machine with your tarsnap
          account.
          Create the keyfile with <command>tarsnap-keygen</command>.

          Note that each individual archive (specified below) may also have its
          own individual keyfile specified. Tarsnap does not allow multiple
          concurrent backups with the same cache directory and key (starting a
          new backup will cause another one to fail). If you have multiple
          archives specified, you should either spread out your backups to be
          far apart, or specify a separate key for each archive. By default
          every archive defaults to using
          <literal>"/root/tarsnap.key"</literal>.

          It's recommended for backups that you generate a key for every archive
          using <literal>tarsnap-keygen(1)</literal>, and then generate a
          write-only tarsnap key using <literal>tarsnap-keymgmt(1)</literal>,
          and keep your master key(s) for a particular machine off-site.

          The keyfile name should be given as a string and not a path, to
          avoid the key being copied into the Nix store.

                  <literal>"/root/tarsnap.key"</literal> if left unspecified.

                  Use this option if you want to run multiple backups
                  concurrently - each archive must have a unique key. You can
                  generate a write-only key derived from your master key (which
                  is recommended) using <literal>tarsnap-keymgmt(1)</literal>.

                  must generate multiple keys with
                  <literal>tarsnap-keygen(1)</literal>, and then generate write
                  only keys from those.
