NAME

restic-mount - Mount the repository

SYNOPSIS

restic mount [flags] mountpoint

DESCRIPTION

The "mount" command mounts the repository via fuse to a directory. This is a read-only mount.

Snapshot Directories

If you need a different template for directories that contain snapshots, you can pass a time template via --time-template and path templates via --path-template.

Example time template without colons:

    --time-template "2006-01-02_15-04-05"

You need to specify a sample format for exactly the following timestamp:

    Mon Jan 2 15:04:05 -0700 MST 2006

For details please see the documentation for time.Format() at:
  https://godoc.org/time#Time.Format

For path templates, you can use the following patterns which will be replaced:
    %i by short snapshot ID
    %I by long snapshot ID
    %u by username
    %h by hostname
    %t by tags
    %T by timestamp as specified by --time-template

The default path templates are:
    "ids/%i"
    "snapshots/%T"
    "hosts/%h/%T"
    "tags/%t/%T"
