[Borgbackup] Can backups be combined?

[Christian]

Hi Gerrit,

thanks again.

O.K., now I understand.
So inside my "wiederhergestellt"-folder the sub-folders 1p, 2p and 3p
are created. Within each of them one backup.

You helped me a lot in using borgbackup in a more efficient way.
Thanks again and have a nice day.

Greetings
Rosika
