Firefox Profile Backup Backs up the user's Firefox profile to the user's S3-backed Restic repository firefox:profile:backup /cli/commands/firefox-profile-backup https://github.com/megabyte-labs/install.doctor/blob/master/home/dot_config/task/Taskfile.yml#L243 home/dot_config/task/Taskfile.yml

This command backups the Firefox 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 firefox:profile:restore command like so:

run firefox:profile:restore

The Firefox 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.
