.SH NAME
borg-match-archives \- Details regarding match-archives
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
The \fB\-\-match\-archives\fP option matches a given pattern against the list of all archive
names in the repository.
.sp
It uses pattern styles similar to the ones described by \fBborg help patterns\fP:
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B Identical match pattern, selector \fBid:\fP (default)
Simple string match, must fully match exactly as given.
.TP
.B Shell\-style patterns, selector \fBsh:\fP
Match like on the shell, wildcards like \fI*\fP and \fI?\fP work.
.TP
.B \fI\%Regular expressions\fP, selector \fBre:\fP
Full regular expression support.
This is very powerful, but can also get rather complicated.
