Brave Browser Profile Backup Backs up the user's Brave Browser profile to the user's S3-backed Restic repository brave:profile:backup /cli/commands/brave-profile-backup https://github.com/megabyte-labs/install.doctor/blob/master/home/dot_config/task/Taskfile.yml#L43 home/dot_config/task/Taskfile.yml

This command backups the Brave Browser user data profile to an S3-backed Restic repository if the profile exists. If the repository has not been initialized then it will initialize it. After you backup the profile, you can restore it with the brave:profile:restore command like so:

run brave:profile:restore

The Brave Browser backup is encrypted with the same key that Chezmoi uses (stored in ~/.config/age/chezmoi.txt, by default). The backup uses Restic so all the functionality that Restic offers is available with backups made by this command.
