      While reviewing the Stash documentation I spotted the Stash Backup Client in the best practices for backups. I love the idea, but I'm not wild about having a SuperAdmin's credentials inside a crontab file on the server.

      I wanted to throw out a request that a dedicated backup user be created that is restricted from actual logins and allowed read-only access to the critical bits.

      It is superb that you guys have taken this important step into account and built in an integrated approach that can be bolted on by those who need it to take care of such a critical task.
