System audit 2026-09-16: there is no scheduled backup; 13 hand-made .bak copies sit beside the live repositories (newest 2026-09-11), and Forgejo mirrors only Stone. A disk failure loses every other repository, its tickets, forum and wiki. Options: (A) Forgejo pulls every served repository nightly (git mirrors via the export lane; tickets/wiki/forum are NOT carried by git, so this is code-only); (B) a nightly 'fossil backup' of every .fossil file to an off-host target you name (full state, needs a destination with credentials held off this host, e.g. the desktop pulls); (C) both. Stakes: A is code-only, B is the real backup. Your call: reply A, B or C and, for B, the destination. added on 2026-09-16 22:35:01: MAINTAINER 2026-09-16: backups are semi-regular today; he will put them on a cron job and also have Stone perform scheduled backups (less reliable while Stone has bugs). Decision made, no options pending. Stays open until the cron job is in place and one restore has been tried; then close. | ||||
