this is a FAQ (by people who have firewalls or want it for other reasons) and some people are evaluating setups with ssh -R (see some posts in #36).

this issue is to collect such setups and if evaluated successfully, add it to the documentation.

note: the debian/ubuntu package description says borg only supports push, maybe that can be removed after this ticket is closed.

so, if you successfully run a pull-like setup, the best thing you can do is to make a pull request that closes this ticket.

💰 there is a bounty for this

Note: to collect the bounty you need to run a reliable pull-like setup, do a pull request for our documentation, documenting the pull-related parts of the setup.
