bup-import-duplicity - import duplicity backups
bup-import-duplicity is EXPERIMENTAL (proceed with caution)
bup import-duplicity [-n] \<source-url> \<save-name>
bup import-duplicity imports all of the duplicity backups at
source-url into bup via bup save -n save-name. The bup saves
will have the same timestamps (via bup save --date) as the original
backups.
Because this command operates by restoring each duplicity backup to a
temporary directory, the extent to which the metadata is preserved
will depend on the characteristics of the underlying filesystem,
whether or not you run import-duplicity as root (or under
fakeroot(1)), etc.
Note that this command will use mkdtemp to create
temporary directories, which means that it should respect any
TEMPDIR, TEMP, or TMP environment variable settings. Make sure
that the relevant filesystem has enough space for the largest
duplicity backup being imported.
Since all invocations of duplicity use a temporary --archive-dir,
import-duplicity should not affect ~/.cache/duplicity.
