Update backup location to safe directory (#653)

The previous directory may not share the same directory as the user that runs the container. `/etc/linkding/data` is a safe directory.

@ -25,13 +25,13 @@ linkding includes a CLI command for creating a backup copy of the database.
To create a backup, execute the following command:
```shell
docker exec -it linkding python manage.py backup backup.sqlite3
docker exec -it linkding python manage.py backup /etc/linkding/data/backup.sqlite3
```
This creates a `backup.sqlite3` file in the Docker container.
This creates a `backup.sqlite3` file in the Docker container under `/etc/linkding/data`.
To copy the backup file to your host system, execute the following command:
```shell
docker cp linkding:/etc/linkding/backup.sqlite3 backup.sqlite3
docker cp linkding:/etc/linkding/data/backup.sqlite3 backup.sqlite3
```
This copies the backup file from the Docker container to the current folder on your host system.
Now you can move that file to your backup location.
