  Description     : A wrapper script for Borg backup software that
                    creates and prunes backups

Hi

Most of the time, borg (that is package under the name borgbackup) is
used with wrappers that manages archives creation and deletion in a more
convenient way.

One of the most popular borg wrapper is borgmatic, a Python script that
can be configured using YAML files.

borgmatic is available on PyPI and all its dependencies except
pykwalify, a YAML/JSON validator [1], can be found in Debian
repositories.

It would be nice to have it packaged along borg.

Thanks in advance.
