Borgmatic

Daily backup system using Borg backup, running on indri.

Quick Reference

Property	Value
Install	mise (pipx)
Config	`~/.config/borgmatic/config.yaml`
Schedule	Daily at 2:00 AM
Repository	`/Volumes/backups/borg/` on [[sifaka

What Gets Backed Up

Directories:

~/code/personal/zk - Zettelkasten
/opt/homebrew/var/forgejo - Git forge data
~/.config/borgmatic - Borgmatic config
~/Documents - Personal documents
~/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.

Databases:

miniflux on postgresql
teslamate on postgresql

Not backed up (by design):

ZIM archives (re-downloadable)
Prometheus metrics (ephemeral)
Loki logs (ephemeral)

Retention Policy

Period	Count
Daily	7
Monthly	12
Yearly	1000

Monitoring

Metrics exposed via textfile collector to prometheus:

borgmatic_up - Repository accessibility
borgmatic_last_archive_timestamp - Last backup time
borgmatic_repo_deduplicated_size_bytes - Disk usage

Dashboard: "Borgmatic Backups" in grafana

backups - Full backup policy
sifaka - Backup target
postgresql - Database backups
