        RemotePeer

Class representing a Cedar Backup peer.

As with all of the other classes that represent configuration sections, all of these values are optional. It is up to some higher-level construct to decide whether everything they need is filled in. Some validation is done on non-None assignments through the use of the Python property() construct.

The following restrictions exist on data in this class:
