eject when Time Machine backup is done #65

Open fabiovogt opened 8 months ago

fabiovogt commented 8 months ago

Would be great to have the option to eject a disk after the backup process of Time Machine is done.

nielsmouthaan commented 8 months ago

In theory, this is possible, but Time Machine will stop backing up automatically so I guess you want Ejectify to (temporarily) remount, as well, right? How often/when?

fabiovogt commented 8 months ago

For me it's not necessary to automatically remount the disk. But I guess in generell / for the majority of people it would be great if Ejectify could read the Time Machine settings and remount accordingly (every hour/ every day/ every week).
