Since 1.8 both backup and restore hooks are possible. For this reason, backup hooks have been moved one layer deeper, you have to move them in a backup object.

Before:

locations:
  l1:
    # ...
    from: /foo/bar
    hooks:
      before:
        - pwd

After:

locations:
  l1:
    # ...

      backup:
        before:
          - pwd
      restore:
