NAME

       restic-ls - List files in a snapshot

SYNOPSIS

       restic ls [flags] [snapshotID] [dir...]

DESCRIPTION

       The "ls" command lists files and directories in a snapshot.

       The special snapshot ID "latest" can be used to list files and directories of the latest
       snapshot in the repository. The --host flag can be used in conjunction to select the
       latest snapshot originating from a certain host only.

       File listings can optionally be filtered by directories. Any positional arguments after
       the snapshot ID are interpreted as absolute directory paths, and only files inside those
       directories will be listed. If the --recursive flag is used, then the filter will allow
       traversing into matching directories' subfolders.  Any directory paths specified must be
       absolute (starting with a path separator); paths use the forward slash '/' as separator.
