Describe the bug
There is no possibility to add command line parameters to borg backup when the repository is already created. I want to limit backup to one filesystem (exclude mount points) by -x, but it is nowhere to add.

When trying to add the command to newly linked repository, there is error in log:
borg: error: unrecognized arguments: -x

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Create a new backup repository
  2. Try to add command line parameter -x
  3. Check log: borg: error: unrecognized arguments: -x

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Mac OS Catalina

Additional context
If appropriate include logs. Can be found in Main Window > Misc Tab > Log.
