Now this idea I like!

Thanks for this, I didn't think about using the Git repo as a SECONDARY backup source.

Also, using Nextcloud sounds like a neat idea.

I'm into Self-Hosting stuff myself nowadays but am starting out small (ex: Just bought an old Dell Optiplex from eBay, put 2 HDDs into it, planning on using it for HDD backups, and as a Git server).

However, this sounds like an awesome workflow, as I did not consider to host Nextcloud. Awesome idea, thank you for this, Juan!
