mixtape-search
Searches for matching files in the backup.
Usage:
mixtape-search [<index>] <file>
Searches the backups for all files matching the <file>
pattern. The
search can be limited to one or more <index>
files, either with and index
id (e.g. @586efbc4
), a named search (e.g. all
, first
, last
) or a
partial timestamp (e.g. 2017-01
) with optional glob matching (e.g.
20??-*-01
). If no <index>
is specified, all
is assumed.
The <file>
pattern supports glob matching (e.g. /etc/**/*.sh
).
Avoid shell expansion of the pattern by using quotes (i.e. "pattern"
). A
pattern starting with /
will match an absolute file path.
By default, the oldest copy of each file version (a unique sha256sum
) is
printed. Use --all
to show all copies.
