+
+1.3.18
+ * #220: Fix regression of argument parsing for default actions.
+
+1.3.17
+ * #217: Fix error with "borgmatic check --only" command-line flag with "extract" consistency check.
+
+1.3.16
+ * #210: Support for Borg check --verify-data flag via borgmatic "data" consistency check.
+ * #210: Override configured consistency checks via "borgmatic check --only" command-line flag.
+ * When generating sample configuration with generate-borgmatic-config, add a space after each "#"
+   comment indicator.
+
+1.3.15
+ * #208: Fix for traceback when the "checks" option has an empty value.
+ * #209: Bypass Borg error about a moved repository via "relocated_repo_access_is_ok" option in
+   borgmatic storage configuration section.
+ * #213: Reorder arguments passed to Borg to fix duplicate directories when using Borg patterns.
+ * #214: Fix for hook erroring with exit code 1 not being interpreted as an error.
+
+1.3.14
+ * #204: Do not treat Borg warnings (exit code 1) as failures.
+ * When validating configuration files, require strings instead of allowing any scalar type.
+
+1.3.13
+ * #199: Add note to documentation about using spaces instead of tabs for indentation, as YAML does
+   not allow tabs.
+ * #203: Fix compatibility with ruamel.yaml 0.16.x.
+ * If a "prefix" option in borgmatic's configuration has an empty value (blank or ""), then disable
+   default prefix.
+
+1.3.12
+ * Only log to syslog when run from a non-interactive console (e.g. a cron job).
+ * Remove unicode byte order mark from syslog output so it doesn't show up as a literal in rsyslog
+   output. See discussion on #197.
+
+1.3.11
+ * #193: Pass through several "borg list" and "borg info" flags like --short, --format, --sort-by,
+   --first, --last, etc. via borgmatic command-line flags.
+ * Add borgmatic info --repository and --archive command-line flags to display info for individual
+   repositories or archives.
+ * Support for Borg --noatime, --noctime, and --nobirthtime flags via corresponding options in
+   borgmatic configuration location section.
+
+1.3.10
+ * #198: Fix for Borg create error output not showing up at borgmatic verbosity level zero.
+
+1.3.9
+ * #195: Switch to command-line actions as more traditional sub-commands, e.g. "borgmatic create",
+   "borgmatic prune", etc. However, the classic dashed options like "--create" still work!
+
+1.3.8
+ * #191: Disable console color via "color" option in borgmatic configuration output section.

+title: Add preparation and cleanup steps to backups
+---
+## Preparation and cleanup hooks
+
+If you find yourself performing prepraration tasks before your backup runs, or
+cleanup work afterwards, borgmatic hooks may be of interest. Hooks are
+shell commands that borgmatic executes for you at various points, and they're
+configured in the `hooks` section of your configuration file.
+
+For instance, you can specify `before_backup` hooks to dump a database to file
+before backing it up, and specify `after_backup` hooks to delete the temporary
+file afterwards. Here's an example:
+
+```yaml
+hooks:
+    before_backup:
+        - dump-a-database /to/file.sql
+    after_backup:
+        - rm /to/file.sql
+```
+
+borgmatic hooks run once per configuration file. `before_backup` hooks run
+prior to backups of all repositories. `after_backup` hooks run afterwards, but
+not if an error occurs in a previous hook or in the backups themselves.
+
+
+## Error hooks
+
+borgmatic also runs `on_error` hooks if an error occurs, either when creating
+a backup or running another hook. Here's an example configuration:
+
+```yaml
+hooks:
+    on_error:
+        - echo "Error while creating a backup or running a hook."
+```
+
+## Hook output
+
+Any output produced by your hooks shows up both at the console and in syslog
+(when run in a non-interactive console). For more information, read about <a
+href="https://torsion.org/borgmatic/docs/how-to/inspect-your-backups.md">inspecting
+your backups</a>.
+
+## Security
+
+An important security note about hooks: borgmatic executes all hook commands
+with the user permissions of borgmatic itself. So to prevent potential shell
+injection or privilege escalation, do not forget to set secure permissions
+(`chmod 0700`) on borgmatic configuration files and scripts invoked by hooks.
