NAME

       restic-recover - Recover data from the repository not referenced by snapshots

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       The  "recover"  command  builds a new snapshot from all directories it can find in the raw
       data of the repository which are not referenced in an existing snapshot.  It can  be  used
       if, for example, a snapshot has been removed by accident with "forget".

EXIT STATUS

       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.
