Antoine Beaupré 8e36075fe9 commit usage files directly into git
the generation of those files was causing us way too much pain to
justify automatically generating them all the time.

those will have to be re-generated with `build_api` or `build_usage`
as appropriate, for example when function signatures or commandline
flags change.

Description
~~~~~~~~~~~
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 ``PATHs`` as arguments. The file selection can further
be restricted by using the ``--exclude`` option.
See the output of the "borg help patterns" command for more help on exclude patterns.
