Restic snapshots path option matching completely

Getting Help
1

Currently I have setup:

Backup Job 1 - paths A and B
Backup Job 2 - paths A and B and C

if I do restic snapshots --path A --path B I get snapshots from both jobs. Is there a way to force the match to be complete (so no snapshots from job 2)

The reason I need this is that I am using the output to get the last two snapshots from a job which I feed to restic diff to see what has changed in last snapshot but currently having the list include snapshots from both is causing problems.

You can tag the backups differently and then search the snapshots based on tags.

restic snapshots --tag job1

There is no option in restic to filter by exact paths-list. But you can filter using some jq magic using restic snapshots --json.

The alternative would be to ask for some new feature option in restic (or use rustic --filter-paths-exact).
