.SH NAME
borg-extract \- Extract archive contents
2017-02-05 13:22:06 +00:00
.SH SYNOPSIS
.sp
2022-06-23 23:19:19 +00:00
borg [common options] extract [options] NAME [PATH...]
2017-02-05 13:22:06 +00:00
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
This command extracts the contents of an archive. By default the entire
archive is extracted but a subset of files and directories can be selected
by passing a list of \fBPATHs\fP as arguments. The file selection can further
be restricted by using the \fB\-\-exclude\fP option.
.sp
2022-02-19 17:48:13 +00:00
For more help on include/exclude patterns, see the \fIborg_patterns\fP command output.
2017-02-05 13:22:06 +00:00
.sp
By using \fB\-\-dry\-run\fP, you can do all extraction steps except actually writing the
output data: reading metadata and data chunks from the repo, checking the hash/hmac,
decrypting, decompressing.
2017-05-17 09:52:48 +00:00
.sp
\fB\-\-progress\fP can be slower than no progress display, since it makes one additional
pass over the archive metadata.

.INDENT 3.5
2022-09-10 14:03:27 +00:00
Currently, extract always writes into the current working directory (\(dq.\(dq),
so make sure you \fBcd\fP to the right place before calling \fBborg extract\fP\&.
2022-02-05 16:30:40 +00:00
.sp
When parent directories are not extracted (because of using file/directory selection
or any other reason), borg can not restore parent directories\(aq metadata, e.g. owner,
group, permission, etc.
