Deprecation notice

This release deprecates the BACKUP_STOP_CONTAINER_LABEL setting and renames it to BACKUP_STOP_DURING_BACKUP_LABEL. The old setting will still work, but you will see a deprecation warning in your logs. It will also be removed in the next major version.

To update, rename the key:

    env:
-     BACKUP_STOP_CONTAINER_LABEL: database
+     BACKUP_STOP_DURING_BACKUP_LABEL: database
