Warning that this doesn't detect errors properly. Reporting that it successfully backed up when it definitely did not.

Thank you for reporting this.

Bob is still a very early project (development started 3 days ago). We just released version 0.1.2 which improves the error handling.

Feel free to open issues on the Github page if more things come up.

You should probably put that disclaimer on the GitHub README. Lots of folks will have no idea.

It's a testament to your good design that it looks finished though. Kudos! :)
