Don't close repository immediately

Getting Help

Can I keep a repository open for some time waiting for requests instead of closing immediately after execution?

The problem is that opening a repository takes some time, which is a redundant overhead for commands executed sequentially or within short periods of time

My specific problem: slow performance in navigation inside backups in a restic GUI app called “Restic Browser” which probably executes every fetching command separately

There is currently no concept of keeping a repository open. Some discussion in that regard was started in restic ls supports incremental listings of additional directories for reduced interactive latency · Issue #4897 · restic/restic · GitHub .

While this only fixes ls, it still is a good idea…

Anyways, I managed to used restic mount on WSL, and it works if I use --allow-other

However, this requires ca-certificates package
