This probably happened due to me having zero experience with borg and starting directly on the borgmatic. So I would totally understand if this get disregarded, but I will write it here, so if anyone face this issue in the future, maybe they will find the solution quicker than I did.
The issue was that whenever the cronjob triggered the job failed with that error message. I followed all the steps in the Usage part of the README, but this issue was always appearing. The missed information was that before running the container, the repository directory must be already inited.
I would suggest an addition of this step to the README or even better if the script would init the repository in case it was not inited yet.
Thanks for the awesome tool!

As of now, this command can be used to initialize the repository:
# ssh into the container:# docker exec -it borgmatic bash# init all repositories
borgmatic init --encryption=repokey-blake2
# or init repository in one folder:# borg init --encryption repokey-blake2 /mnt/borg-repository
--encryption can be either repokey or repokey-blake2.
Use whichever one is faster on your client machines (more details)

Will doing this still leave the passphrase to be what is defined in the env variable BORG_PASSPHRASE ?
I did this and Borg printed out the key, but never asked me for a passphrase like the borg documentation said it would
