@ -208,6 +208,10 @@ A repository can be made "append-only", which means that Borg will never
overwrite or delete committed data (append-only refers to the segment files,
but borg will also reject to delete the repository completely).
Please note that this only affects the low level structure of the repository,
and running ``borg delete`` or `borg prune` or reading from the repository will
still be allowed.
If ``borg compact`` command is used on a repo in append-only mode, there
will be no warning or error, but no compaction will happen.
