Hi Richard,

thank you for this work, it looks really useful and in general I think the patches are ok but I have some points I'd like to discuss.

I think it would be nice to have an init action for the restic-guix command shipped with the service and move there the logic for initializing repositories. The service then could be adapted in a way that it would call the restic-guix init before calling restic-guix backup. Would you be interested in implementing this?

At last, my use case for having a restic package field for each job is to have some critical jobs that I don't want to touch running with Guix's bootstrapped restic package and some personal jobs that I run with a restic 0.16 binary package I have in my personal channel . I'm not sure this warrants a field in each single job, but they are optional anyway. Anyway I wouldn't consider this a blocker and if the Guix project has some guidelines in this sense I'd say follow them.

Cheers,

giacomo
