The `--append-only` mode allows creation of new backups but prevents deletion and modification of existing backups. This can be useful when backing up systems that have a potential of being hacked.
To prevent your users from accessing each others' repositories, you may use the `--private-repos` flag which grants access only when a subdirectory with the same name as the user is specified in the repository URL. For example, user "foo" using the repository URLs `rest:https://foo:pass@host:8000/foo` or `rest:https://foo:pass@host:8000/foo/` would be granted access, but the same user using repository URLs `rest:https://foo:pass@host:8000/` or `rest:https://foo:pass@host:8000/foobar/` would be denied access.
