 The following hooks groups are supported, none are required:
 
-- `prevalidate`
 - `before`
 - `after`
 - `failure`
 - `success`
 
-The difference between `prevalidate` and `before` hooks are that `prevalidate` is run before checking the backup location is valid, including checking that the `from` directories exist. This can be useful, for example, to mount the source filesystem that contains the directories listed in `from`.
