Importing an Existing Restic Repository

When creating a new repository, adding an option to import an existing Restic repository into Backrest would be so much useful for someone like me who already have multiple repository for my multiple systems andVMs.

Hey, backrest already supports this. Adding a repo simply adds it to the UI -- if the repo already exists it is implicitly imported. Click "index snapshots" once you've added your restic repo to load the snapshots you've already created.
