Re: [Question #116587]: Can the "verify" option be used to ensure the entire backup could restore without error?

 

Question #116587 on Duplicity changed:

edso proposed the following answer:
Works for me .. We should document this more clearly in the man page.
Something like

"
Verify is done by comparing the archive contents with the stored signatures, i.e. the archived file with its hash value at archival time.
If the --file-to-restore option is given, restrict verify to that file or directory. duplicity will exit with a non-zero error level if any files are different. On verbosity level 4 or higher, log a message for each file that has changed.
