How do I make and restore a backup of ItemPath?

Backups can be done manually with the following commands:

Database backup:

						cp ~/ItemPath/data/appdata.db ~/ItemPath/data/backups/appdata-backup-03-2026.db

Docker-compose.yml backup (replacing MM-YY with the current date):

						cp docker-compose.yml ItemPath/data/backups/docker-compose-03-26.yml

To restore the files in case of a failed upgrade, simply 'cp' the files in the opposite direction. Be careful when doing this! You don't want to overwrite anything by mistake.
