NAME

6       bup-import-duplicity - import duplicity backups

WARNING

9       bup-import-duplicity is EXPERIMENTAL (proceed with caution)

SYNOPSIS

12       bup import-duplicity [-n] <source-url> <save-name>
13

DESCRIPTION

15       bup import-duplicity imports all of the duplicity backups at source-url
16       into bup via bup save -n save-name.  The bup saves will have  the  same
17       timestamps (via bup save --date) as the original backups.
18
19       Because  this  command operates by restoring each duplicity backup to a
20       temporary directory, the extent to which the metadata is preserved will
21       depend  on the characteristics of the underlying filesystem, whether or
22       not you run import-duplicity as root (or under fakeroot(1)), etc.
23
24       Note that this command will use mkdtemp  (https://docs.python.org/2/li‐
25       brary/tempfile.html#tempfile.mkdtemp)  to create temporary directories,
26       which means that it should respect any TEMPDIR, TEMP, or  TMP  environ‐
27       ment  variable  settings.   Make  sure that the relevant filesystem has
28       enough space for the largest duplicity backup being imported.
29
30       Since all invocations of duplicity use a temporary  --archive-dir,  im‐
31       port-duplicity should not affect ~/.cache/duplicity.
