RUN_ON_STARTUP environment variable, what does it do?

[notflip]

I'm wondering what the RUN_ON_STARTUP flag does? How does it influence the docker container?

[witten]

It looks like it does just what it says on the tin:

docker-borgmatic/entry.sh

Line 79 in 2a56a5b

if [ "${RUN_ON_STARTUP:-}" == "true" ]; then

It runs borgmatic when the container starts up instead of (just) waiting for a cron job to kick in.

Ah right, forgot to check there. Thanks!
