How to use the local backend?

The documentation on the local backend seems sparse at best. My impression is that I could use it to backup to a Kubernetes volume instead of to object storage, but I can't actually find out whether that is what it would do. The object specification only mentions a mountPath: MountPath inside the restic container, but I cannot find anything about creating that mount on the container.

Were you able to solve your problems? If yes a short description would be nice so I could try them out maybe?

Unfortunately I haven't figured out how to use this yet.

Hi Everyone

The local backend consists currently only of configuration stubs. There's no PVC handling implemented in the actual operator. So it's basically a useless setting right now.

Any update on local backend docs?
