Sure. My ultimate vision is to use Duplicati for de-duplicated “cold storage”. For instance, I want to be able to upload movies to S3, delete them locally, and then retrieve them at will. However, based on this conversation:
you have to pick the right [backup] when restoring. If you make two backups and delete files inbetween then you won’t be able to see the deleted files in the newest snapshot.
So, the goal is to address my content based on the file path, rather than by snapshot: for each unique file path, I want to see the full revision history, regardless of backup date.
Yes, I am using real backups. I’ll clean up my code a bit and post later.
