Re: [rdiff-backup-users] How to restore a specific list of files with rdiff backup?

[Ronny Standtke]

Hi William

Is it possible to restore a specific list of files from an rdiff-backup
repository?

I'd like to restore all index.php and index.html files from one day ago
to a temporary local dir, but don't know how to do it, if it's even
possible. Even better would be to provide rdiff-backup with a list of
files from a text file.

You may use JBackpack, a GUI for rdiff-backup. It has a very comfortable browser for rdiff-backup directories where you can easily restore selected files and directories, see:

especially:

Full disclosure: I am the author of JBackpack...
