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.

You can run scripts before/after pacman commands using hooks
