Specify a custom config file for obnam

Untested by me. From the man page:

Configuration files and settings
       --config=FILE
              add FILE to config files

       --dump-config
              write out the entire current configuration

       --dump-setting-names
              SUPPRESSHELP

       --help-all
              show all options

       --list-config-files
              SUPPRESSHELP

       --no-default-configs
              clear list of configuration files to read

Which ought to mean that this should work:

obnam backup $HOME --no-default-configs --config=FILE
