Description
|
|
|

~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
This command finds differences in files (contents, user, group, mode) between archives.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Both archives need to be in the same repository, and a repository location may only
|
|
|
|
|
be specified for ARCHIVE1.

|
|
For archives created with Borg 1.1 or newer diff automatically detects whether
|
|
|
|
|
the archives are created with the same chunker params. If so, only chunk IDs
|
2016-03-18 12:30:39 +00:00
|
|
|
are compared, which is very fast.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For archives prior to Borg 1.1 chunk contents are compared by default.
|
|
|
|
|
If you did not create the archives with different chunker params,
|
|
|
|
|
pass --same-chunker-params.
|
|
|
|
|
Note that the chunker params changed from Borg 0.xx to 1.0.
