Thanks a lot for creating wonderful alternative to the amazing
restic
program. I have been watching the progress of your project for a while and waiting for the right moment to jump on. We a few things have happened that cause me to seriously take a look at this project. I have been looking to restore a very old snapshot in restic and found the lack of any description very challenging in figuring out the right snapshot to pick. So the fact that this one has that ability is great incentive going forward. However I am using a wrapper for restic called autorestic which has the ability to call scripts/programs per source/location as hooks. I use this ability extensively to gracefully bring down containers before backup and bring them back up after the backup is complete. There is a documentation available for this feature here. There are 4 hooks supported:These hooks are per source. But I think there might be some value in having hooks that are called per repo as well.
