bup-ls

bup-ls(1)						      General Commands Manual							 bup-ls(1)

NAME

       bup-ls - list the contents of a bup repository

SYNOPSIS

       bup ls [-s] [-a]

DESCRIPTION

       bup ls lists files and directories in your bup repository using the same directory hierarchy as they would have with bup-fuse(1).

       The  top  level	directory  contains the branch (corresponding to the -n option in bup save), the next level is the date of the backup, and
       subsequent levels correspond to files in the backup.

       When bup ls is asked to output on a tty, it formats its output in columns so that it can list as much as possible in as few lines as possi-
       ble.  However, when bup ls is asked to output to something other than a tty (say you pipe the output to another command, or you redirect it
       to a file), it will output one file name per line.  This makes the listing easier to parse with external tools.

       Note that bup ls doesn't show hidden files by default and one needs to use the -a option to show them.  Files are hidden  when  their  name
       begins with a dot.  For example, on the topmost level, the special directories named .commit and .tag are hidden directories.

       Once you have identified the file you want using bup ls, you can view its contents using bup join or git show.

OPTIONS

       -s, --hash
	      show hash for each file/directory.

       -a, --all
	      show hidden files.

EXAMPLE

	      bup ls /myserver/latest/etc/profile

	      bup ls -a /
