RESTIC-SNAPSHOTS(1)

✨ restic-snapshots(1) ✨ — aka the restic backup(1) manual, bestie edition 🎀

okay so hi. you're reading the manual page for restic-snapshots, living inside the restic backup(1) manual family. pull up a chair, grab a strawberry 🍓, and let's get you fluent.

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

restic-snapshots — list all the snapshots. that's it. that's the whole job. 👑

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

restic snapshots [flags] [snapshotID ...]

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

the snapshots command lists all snapshots stored in the repository. yes, all of them. every single one. no cap. 🫶

---

💅 EXIT STATUS 💅

the vibes are quantified, bestie:

• exit status is 0 if the command was successful ✨
• exit status is 1 if there was any error 😭
• exit status is 10 if the repository does not exist 💀
• exit status is 11 if the repository is already locked 🔒
• exit status is 12 if the password is incorrect 🙈

---

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• -c, --compact[=false] — use compact output format (short king energy, less scrolling)
• -g, --group-by= — group snapshots by host, paths and/or tags, separated by comma
• -h, --help[=false] — help for snapshots
• -H, --host=[] — only consider snapshots for this host (can be specified multiple times, use empty string to unset default value) (default: $RESTIC_HOST)
• --latest=0 — only show the last n snapshots for each host and path
• --path=[] — only consider snapshots including this (absolute) path (can be specified multiple times, snapshots must include all specified paths)

---

🌈 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🌈

these ones are the family heirlooms, passed down from the parent command. iconic behavior honestly.

• --no-cache[=false] — do not use a local cache
• --no-extra-verify[=false] — skip additional verification of data before upload (see documentation)
• --no-lock[=false] — do not lock the repository, this allows some operations on read-only repositories
• -o, --option=[] — set extended option (key=value, can be specified multiple times)
• --pack-size=0 — set target pack size in MiB, created pack files may be larger (default: $RESTIC_PACK_SIZE)

• --repository-file="" — file to read the repository location from (default: $RESTIC_REPOSITORY_FILE)
• --retry-lock=0s — retry to lock the repository if it is already locked, takes a value like 5m or 2h (default: no retries)
• --stuck-request-timeout=5m0s — duration after which to retry stuck requests

heads up bestie: --insecure-no-password and --insecure-tls are both labeled insecure for a reason. the manpage says so, and the manpage does not lie. 🚨
