1. Before a backup can be made, a repository has to be initialized::
|
|
|
|
$ borg -r /path/to/repo rcreate --encryption=repokey-aes-ocb
|
|
|
|
2. Back up the ``~/src`` and ``~/Documents`` directories into an archive called
|
|
*Monday*::
|
|
|
|
$ borg -r /path/to/repo create Monday ~/src ~/Documents
|
|
|
|
3. The next day create a new archive called *Tuesday*::
|
|
|
|
$ borg -r /path/to/repo create --stats Tuesday ~/src ~/Documents
|
|
|
|
This backup will be a lot quicker and a lot smaller since only new, never
|
|
before seen data is stored. The ``--stats`` option causes Borg to
|
|
output statistics about the newly created archive such as the deduplicated
|
|
size (the amount of unique data not shared with other archives)::
|
|
|
|
Repository: /path/to/repo
|
|
Archive name: Tuesday
|
|
Archive fingerprint: bcd1b53f9b4991b7afc2b339f851b7ffe3c6d030688936fe4552eccc1877718d

Utilization of max. archive size: 0%

Number of files: 699

Deduplicated size: 502 B

|
4. List all archives in the repository::
|
|
|
|
$ borg -r /path/to/repo rlist
|
|
Monday Sat, 2022-06-25 20:21:14 [b80e24d2...b179f298]
|
|
Tuesday Sat, 2022-06-25 20:21:43 [bcd1b53f...1877718d]
|
|
|
|
5. List the contents of the *Monday* archive::
|
|
|
|
$ borg -r /path/to/repo list Monday
|
|
drwxr-xr-x user group 0 Mon, 2016-02-15 18:22:30 home/user/Documents
|
|
-rw-r--r-- user group 7961 Mon, 2016-02-15 18:22:30 home/user/Documents/Important.doc
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
6. Restore the *Monday* archive by extracting the files relative to the current directory::
|
|
|
|
$ borg -r /path/to/repo extract Monday
|
|
|
|
7. Delete the *Monday* archive (please note that this does **not** free repo disk space)::
|
|
|
|
$ borg -r /path/to/repo delete -a Monday
|
|
|
|
Please note the ``-a`` option here (short for ``--match-archives``) which enables you
|
|
to give a pattern to delete multiple archives, like ``-a 'sh:oldcrap-*'``.
|
|
You can also combine this with ``--first``, ``--last`` and ``--sort-by``.
|
|
Be careful, always first use with ``--dry-run`` and ``--list``!
|
|
|
|
8. Recover disk space by compacting the segment files in the repo::
|
|
|
|
$ borg -r /path/to/repo compact
|
|
|
|
.. Note::
|
|
Borg is quiet by default (it defaults to WARNING log level).
|
|
You can use options like ``--progress`` or ``--list`` to get specific
|
|
reports during command execution. You can also add the ``-v`` (or
|
|
``--verbose`` or ``--info``) option to adjust the log level to INFO to
|
|
get other informational messages.
