b43d3bb7fa new BORG_WORKAROUNDS mechanism, basesyncfile, fixes #4710

set BORG_WORKAROUNDS=basesyncfile in the borg process environment to
work around it.

3445d4cca0 Updated doc to cover use of temp directory on remote (#4545)
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.

627ca1376b Fix various code blocks in the docs (#4708)
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.

fc2c92b054 add a push-style example to borg-create(1) (#4613)
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.

5b47cf6fa5
Add borg config command (fixes #3304)
This command works similarly to "git config" - it parses repo and
cache configs to get, set, and delete values. It only works on local
repos so a malicious client can't e.g. override their storage quota
or reset the append_only flag.

Add tests for borg config

Add documentation for borg config

Change manual config edits -> borg config

There were a couple places in the documentation where it was advised
to edit the repository or cache config file, a process that is stream-
lined by borg config.

5e2de8ba67 implement files cache mode control, fixes #911
You can now control the files cache mode using this option:

--files-cache={ctime,mtime,size,inode,rechunk,disabled}*

(only some combinations are supported)

Previously, only these modes were supported:
- mtime,size,inode (default of borg < 1.1.0rc4)
- mtime,size (by using --ignore-inode)
- disabled (by using --no-files-cache)

Now, you additionally get:
- ctime alternatively to mtime (more safe), e.g.:
  ctime,size,inode (this is the new default of borg >= 1.1.0rc4)
- rechunk (consider all files as changed, rechunk them)

Deprecated:
- --ignore-inodes (use modes without "inode")
- --no-files-cache (use "disabled" mode)

The tests needed some changes:
- previously, we use os.utime() to set a files mtime (atime) to specific
  values, but that does not work for ctime.
- now use time.sleep() to create the "latest file" that usually does
  not end up in the files cache (see FAQ)
