Is there a way to automatically take a btrfs snapshot prior to upgrading? (programming.dev)

I've seen some tools that do things like take snapshots periodically and ones that add snapshots to grub, but not this specifically. Does something exist?

This will probably be on EndeavourOS, not Arch directly, if it matters.

Awesome! I installed it. Hopefully if something goes wrong I should be good. And yes, I used Grub!

You can always test it by booting off a backup image. If it works, you have peace of mind, and you can just reboot again from the correct image
