- Description
- ~~~~~~~~~~~
- This command finds differences in files (contents, user, group, mode) between archives.
- Both archives need to be in the same repository, and a repository location may only
- be specified for ARCHIVE1.
- For archives created with Borg 1.1 or newer only chunks IDs
- are compared, which is very fast. For archives prior to Borg 1.1 chunk contents must be
- compared, unless you are sure they were created with the same chunker params
- (pass --same-chunker-params). Note that the chunker params changed from Borg 0.xx to 1.0.
- See the output of the "borg help patterns" command for more help on exclude patterns.
