[Borgbackup] best practices for repo access hardcopy

Hi,

I am wondering what others do to back up repository access information
as hardcopy.

I am using a borgbase remote repository. Currently I print

1. the borgmatic .yaml file and
2. the ssh key

on paper, expecting to retype it in case a disaster happens to
electronic copies (which I keep on a USB stick).

I thought of

1. stripping the YAML comments,

2. making a tar.gz archive of the above,

3. printing it as a large QR code (with as much redundancy as allowed by
the limits of QR).

Suggestions appreciated.

best,

Tamas
