2020-09-19 15:38:26 +00:00
The "dump" command extracts files from a snapshot from the repository. If a
single file is selected, it prints its contents to stdout. Folders are output
2021-02-14 10:44:20 +00:00
as a tar (default) or zip file containing the contents of the specified folder.
Pass "/" as file name to dump the whole snapshot as an archive file.

":" syntax, where "subfolder" is a path within the
snapshot.
