When parent directories are not extracted (because of using file/directory selection
or any other reason), borg can not restore parent directories' metadata, e.g. owner,
group, permission, etc.
The default interpretation for the paths to extract is `pp:` which is a literal
path-prefix match. If you want to use e.g. a wildcard, you must select a different
pattern style such as `sh:` or `fm:`. See :ref:`borg_patterns` for more information.
