Retry on connection failures

Description

I tried to make a backup using Vorta and make my computer run through the night, but after some time upload process ended with a bug. It happened two times, while uploading and at 42GB and at 103GB.

Creating backup again makes it continue when ended, but I don't know if the backup will not be corrupted.

OS

Fedora 36, KDE Plasma 5.25.5

Version of Vorta

v0.8.7

What did you install Vorta with?

Version of Borg

Hi, this is a network interruption. You can just proceed with your backup. Borg will do a checkpoint every 30 minutes, so you don't loose much progress.

Not to self: We could implement automatic retrying for such cases, like Borgmatic already does.

Thanks, good to know. Automatic retrying should be there, because leaving machine to do big backup on slow connection, only to get back next day and see some error leaves bad impressions. Also some dialog saying what's going on would be nice too.

If borg exits with an error code greater than 1, vorta will retry the backup after maximum an hour. This is not the case with the error code 1 since that only indicates a warning, not a failed backup.

Can you enclose some more log lines after the error?
