Just a newbie question about the shell script on this page:

https://borgbackup.readthedocs.io/en/stable/quickstart.html

If "borg create" exits non-zero, "borg prune" is invoked anyway.
Suppose "borg create" exits non-zero during a longer period, let's say
a week or so, would "borg prune --keep-hourly 24" leave at least the
last 24 hour backups intact?

Or would it be better to invoke "borg prune" only after a zero exit of
"borg create"?
