FAQ
Does it work with existing Repositories?
Yes, existing restic repositories can be used. When first creating a profile the app will detect if a repository already exists. Folders will be added from existing snapshots if possible.
Can I use it with rclone?
Yes. Rclone is not included, but if it is installed on your system, restic will be able to call rclone. You configure your backend in rclone and then set the restic backend as 'rclone:foo:bar' as described here.
