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.

       File   listings   can   be   sorted  by  specifying  --sort  followed  by  one  of  the  sort  specifiers
       '(name|size|time=mtime|atime|ctime|extension)'.  The sorting can be reversed by specifying --reverse.

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.
