<pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">Hi,
I am wondering what others do to back up repository access information
as hardcopy.
I am using a borgbase remote repository. Currently I print
1. the borgmatic .yaml file and
2. the ssh key
on paper, expecting to retype it in case a disaster happens to
electronic copies (which I keep on a USB stick).
I thought of
1. stripping the YAML comments,
2. making a tar.gz archive of the above,
3. printing it as a large QR code (with as much redundancy as allowed by
the limits of QR).
Suggestions appreciated.
best,
Tamas

also lists the --qr-html option<br>
<br>
There are three backup formats.<br>
<br>
The normal backup format is suitable for digital storage as a file.<br>
The <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">--paper</span></code>
backup format is optimized for printing and typing in while
importing, with per line checks to reduce problems with manual
input.<br>
The <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">--qr-html</span></code>
creates a printable HTML template with a QR code and a copy of the <code
class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">--paper</span></code>-formatted
key.
