The intended usage here is to basically kick restic as a background
"do it, but don't bother my normal load" process.
This allows passing the following environment variables in to
influence scheduling:
- NICE: usual CPU nice. Defaults to 0. This requires CAP_SYS_NICE
to set a negative nice (IE, prioritize).
- IONICE_CLASS: usual ionice class. Note that setting realtime
requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN. Also note the actual ionice default
is "none".
- IONICE_PRIORITY: set the priority within the given class. Ignored
if no class is specified due to class default of "no scheduler".

The godoc for filepath.Match has the syntax, which is what is important
for writing patterns. Use pkg.go.dev instead of golang.org/pkg.
For #4245. Not all links fixed yet.
The keyfile provided by restic's own webserver (https://restic.net) should be
more stable than relying on public keyservers. So I changed the URL to the
GPG keyfile, as recommended by MichaelEischer.
I like the idea of verifying the integrity of applications, I download from the internet. So I was very happy to see that restic does provide SHA256-checksums which are signed with the maintainers PGP key.
The only thing I miss: I could not find a direct way to download the used PGP key and verify the keys fingerprint.
Doing some searches, I found:
* https://github.com/restic/rest-server/issues/121
* https://restic.net/blog/2015-09-16/verifying-code-archive-integrity/
To help other restic users, I think you should add information about your PGP key/fingerprint to this installation doc, too. To save you some precious time, I created a draft, how this doc might be expanded, in this pull-request. You are free to accept it or change the text to your liking.
I copied the key/fingerprint text from: ``restic/restic/master/doc/090_participating.rst``
Thank you for your work in restic!
