  -n, --name        Use a custom name for your backup [default: backup]

  -P, --path        Use a custom path for your backup [default: current working directory]

  -s, --ssh         Use ssh cloning [default: http]

  -f, --full        Clone with full git history

  -z, --zip         Make a zip file of the backup

  -q, --quiet       Don't see cloning progress

  -r, --repos       Backup only repos
