limit upload bwlimit #65

Hello, for now i have setup a restic backup on my windows devices and works great.

i'm having a trouble because not everywhere i have a large upload bandwidth.

so when restic backup starts , all my internet get very slow.....

reading on restic docs https://restic.readthedocs.io/en/stable/030_preparing_a_new_repo.html (my repo is on google drive with rclone) so seems i can use $ export RCLONE_BWLIMIT=1M

but how can i intergrate in script for windows? i can edit secrets.ps1 and add $Env:RCLONE_BWLIMIT=1M

or edit config.ps1 and edit line $ResticExe = Join-Path $InstallPath $ExeName -o rclone.args="--bwlimit 1M"

thank you in advance

I would recommend putting that type of config in config.ps1, but that's really up to you. I think either should work.
