bionic (1) bup-import-duplicity.1.gz

NAME

       bup-import-duplicity - import duplicity backups

WARNING

       bup-import-duplicity is EXPERIMENTAL (proceed with caution)

SYNOPSIS

       bup import-duplicity [-n] <source-url> <save-name>

DESCRIPTION

       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
       (https://docs.python.org/2/library/tempfile.html#tempfile.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.
