**Specificities: Append-only repositories**
Running ``borg init`` via a ``borg serve --append-only`` server will **not**
create a repository that is configured to be append-only by its repository
config.
But, ``--append-only`` arguments in ``authorized_keys`` will override the
repository config, therefore append-only mode can be enabled on a key by key
basis.
Refer to the `sshd(8) <http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi/OpenBSD-current/man8/sshd.8>`_
man page for more details on SSH options.

You could do that (via borg config REPO append_only 0/1), but using different
ssh keys and different entries in ``authorized_keys`` is much easier and also
maybe has less potential of things going wrong somehow.
