schedule backups #24

split from #23 by @alogcat

If I might make a feature request as well? The ability to either schedule backups on a regular basis, or when edited (though I realize this may need a sort of hourly checker or something so that it doesn't try to backup a million times if I'm editing a bunch at once) like Aegis. I have syncthing copy my backups away, and having them automated is so wonderful. If I could schedule it to create a backup at midnight if there were any unsaved edits since the prior midnight, that would be ideal (for me). If that's down the list, that's totally fine, I can make it part of my regular backup routine, but automation and scheduling is just bomb. Thanks!

I'll give it a though after the 5.1 release. I've always been unhappy myself with the "you started the app 5 times, make a backup" which can be annoying.

I don't launch the app enough to get annoyed by it, but I can see why you might. ;) No rush, just an idea.
