Progress on backups for Darkmoon.
I have successfully made backups for both the database and the filesystem using borgmatic and borgbackup. It uses encryption and SSH keys, and can supply those automatically. Running the full backup from scratch takes about an hour and a half. Subsequent backups take about half an hour. I think that is acceptable.
Now it's ready for automation.

I think I'll try systemd since it is on Debian and that's what Debian uses by default. I think that'll be easier to maintain than cron.
