What does `restic restore --verify` do?

Getting Help

Hi fd0,

thanks for the welcome and your quick reply.

Now I see. My misunderstanding came from the context. (topic of the thread I originally replied to
Scope of `restic check` as well as the original description in the feature request https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/1280)

So now I understand the --verify flag doesn’t really deliver the requested feature. Maybe I missed something on the feature request page… (“Closed” opposed to sth. like “Solved”?)

c) revealed to my “hopeful” first (wrong) understanding, indeed hoping for a “dry restore run” comparing with the status quo at the target.

To see the positive side: That way the syntax looks more self-explanatory to me. :slight_smile:

Regards,
Sina
