A 'list' subcommand would be nice to list the last backup runs of a given configuration.

In order to support setups where servers are backupped multiple times per day (every 4 hours in our setup for some important servers), the config requires an additional KEEP_HOURLY variable and a way to control the systemd timer schedule, probably by an env file per config included in the timer unit.

In order to dump databases etc. before the backup run, having the ability to specify a (list of) script(s) to be run before the actual backup would simplify the usage of borgwrapper. I will see if I can come up with a patch to achieve this.

By default borgwrapper expects the configuration to be located at /etc/borgwrapper/config.sh. Ensure restrictive permissions on this file as it exposes the passphrase.

It's not quite clear just from reading the README how the configuration is supposed to look like. Linking / embedding the config.sh.example might help there :)

By the way, adding the "borgbackup" topic to your repository might make it easier to find.
