.SH NAME
borg-config \- get, set, and delete values in a repository or cache config file
.SH SYNOPSIS
.sp
borg [common options] config [options] [NAME] [VALUE]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
This command gets and sets options in a local repository or cache config file.
For security reasons, this command only works on local repositories.
.sp
To delete a config value entirely, use \fB\-\-delete\fP\&. To list the values
of the configuration file or the default values, use \fB\-\-list\fP\&. To get and existing
key, pass only the key name. To set a key, pass both the key name and
the new value. Keys can be specified in the format "section.name" or
simply "name"; the section will default to "repository" and "cache" for
the repo and cache configs, respectively.
.sp
By default, borg config manipulates the repository config file. Using \fB\-\-cache\fP
edits the repository cache\(aqs config file instead.
