duplicacy: Restore the repository to a previously saved snapshot.
$ duplicacy restore -r ${revision}
try on your machine

This command is used in the Duplicacy backup software to restore a specific revision of a backup. Here's a breakdown of its components:

  • duplicacy: This is the main command-line executable for the Duplicacy backup software.
  • restore: This is the subcommand that instructs Duplicacy to perform a restore operation.
  • -r ${revision}: This flag specifies the revision number of the backup to be restored. ${revision} is a placeholder that should be replaced with the desired revision number. The revision number usually corresponds to a specific backup snapshot or point in time.

To use this command, you need to replace ${revision} with the actual revision number you want to restore. For example, if you want to restore revision 5 of a backup, you would use the command duplicacy restore -r 5. Duplicacy will then restore the files and directories from that specific revision to their original locations.
