general.rst and man_intro.rst both included usage_general.rst.inc, which resulted in three Sphinx warning "WARNING: duplicate label".
To prevent this we move all sections of usage_general into own include files and add a second usage_general file without the three labels.
[DOCS] #4941 – How important is Borg config?
Add one FAQ with for $HOME/.config/borg, describing its content and how to take care of it.
Change "Default to" to "Defaults to".
Move TMPDIR to "Directories and files" section.
Add link to new FAQ for Borg config directory.
Add link to cache internals.
I used `grep -Pnr '.{100}' *.rst` to find lines >100 characters long and
reflowed them where reasonable. Line length in the docs isn't too important (it
doesn't matter once they're compiled), but it's nice not to have super-long
lines in one's editor.
Because some of the JSON blocks in frontends.rst included non-JSON
contents (user replies, etc.) the blocks didn't parse/highlight and
`make html` complained:
borg/docs/internals/frontends.rst:28: WARNING: Could not lex literal_block as "json".
There's no easy way to enable and disable highlighting just for
specific lines, but individually unsetting the highlight language per
block suppresses the warnings.
- Added "Will move with BORG_CONFIG_DIR variable unless specified." to BORG_SECURITY_DIR info.
- put BORG_SECURITY_DIR immediately below BORG_CONFIG_DIR (and moved BORG_CACHE_DIR up before them).
Reiterate that 'file cache names are absolute'
Drive home the point that relative source names does not save you from re-chunking if absolute pathnames change.
Also: mention bind mount solution.
remove WSL autodetection. if WSL still has this problem, you need to
set BORG_WORKAROUNDS=basesyncfile in the borg process environment to
work around it.

docs about remote temp directory usage
Updated doc to cover use of temp directory on remote, in particular how to handle changing the directory used for systems such as QNAP with tiny default /tmp directories.
fixup by tw: do not mention specific brands, specific amounts
this is not QNAP specific, but may happen as well on other limited
systems. the amount of tmp files can also vary widely.
Fix various code blocks in the docs
- rst markup: put codeblock markup on separate line to make it better visible / separate it from normal text colons.
- borg help texts in archiver.py: put codeblock markup instead of colon - that way it looks like a single colon when using the cli help and also works as code block markup.
add a push-style example to borg-create docs
When I browsed the readthedocs and manpages while setting up Borg for
myself for the first time, I saw multiple hints that pushing backups via
SSH is supported (e.g. the existence of the `borg serve` command and the
`--rsh` option), but I never found a clear example. I only found
<https://borgbackup.readthedocs.io/en/stable/usage/general.html#repository-urls>
after being pointed to it by @ThomasWaldmann.
Therefore, an explicit example in the `borg create` documentation seems
appropriate. I put it next to the pull-style example using sshfs which
serves a similar usecase.
