## What Gets Backed Up
**Directories:**
- `~/code/personal/zk` - Zettelkasten
- `/opt/homebrew/var/forgejo` - Git forge data
- `~/.config/borgmatic` - Borgmatic config
- `~/Documents` - Personal documents
2026-02-03 20:52:37 -08:00
- `~/Pictures` - Photos (see note below)
**iCloud Photos note:** macOS Photos.app defaults to "Optimize Mac Storage" which keeps only thumbnails locally. Borgmatic only backs up what's on disk, so iCloud-only photos are NOT backed up via this method.
