Hi, i self host a gitea in my raspberry pi cluster, i’ve deployed in a docker container using a docker compose running in the machine.
My backups consists to a bash script that literaly get the container id, enter on it, and execute the command, “gitea dump > file” to backup, that i save in my NAS.
I was thinking, since i have no docker volumes, why no simply make a docker commit (to generate a image from a running container) and save the backup image in some local image repo? Are there any cons on doing it?
I was thinking because would be really simple to restore in case of any problem.

You’re probably better off defining storage mounts for your containers’ state data and then backing that up with a more standard tool.
