- Repository Locations / Archive names
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Many commands need to know the repository location, give it via ``-r`` / ``--repo``
- or use the ``BORG_REPO`` environment variable.
- Commands needing one or two archive names usually get them as positional argument.
- Commands working with an arbitrary amount of archives, usually take ``-a ARCH_GLOB``.
- Archive names must not contain the ``/`` (slash) character. For simplicity,
- maybe also avoid blanks or other characters that have special meaning on the
- shell or in a filesystem (borg mount will use the archive name as directory
- name).
