repair-snapshots
Section profile.repair-snapshots
This section configures restic command repair-snapshots available since 0.16.0 .
Information on command and flags is copied from the restic manual pages.
The “repair snapshots” command repairs broken snapshots. It scans the given snapshots and generates new ones with damaged directories and file contents removed. If the broken snapshots are deleted, a prune run will be able to clean up the repository.
The command depends on a correct index, thus make sure to run “repair index” first!
Flags used by resticprofile only:
| Name | Type | Default | Notes |

| run-after | one or more strings | Run shell command(s) after a successful restic command | |
