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

NAME

       bup-ftp - ftp-like client for navigating bup repositories

SYNOPSIS

       bup ftp

DESCRIPTION

       bup ftp is a command-line tool for navigating bup repositories.	It has commands similar to the Unix ftp(1) command.  The file hierarchy is
       the same as that shown by bup-fuse(1) and bup-ls(1).

       Note: if your system has the python-readline library installed, you can use the <tab> key  to  complete	filenames  while  navigating  your
       backup data.  This will save you a lot of typing.

COMMANDS

       The following commands are available inside bup ftp:

       ls [-s] [-a] [path]
	      print the contents of a directory.  If no path argument is given, the current directory's contents are listed.  If -a is given, also
	      include hidden files (files which start with a . character).  If -s is given, each file is displayed with its hash from the bup  ar-
	      chive to its left.

       cd dirname
	      change to a different working directory

       pwd    print the path of the current working directory

       cat filenames...
	      print the contents of one or more files to stdout

       get filename localname
	      download the contents of filename and save it to disk as localname.  If localname is omitted, uses filename as the local name.

       mget filenames...
	      download	the contents of the given filenames and stores them to disk under the same names.  The filenames may contain Unix filename
	      globs (*, ?, etc.)

       help   print a list of available commands

       quit   exit the bup ftp client

EXAMPLE

	      $ bup ftp
	      bup> ls
	      mybackup/    yourbackup/

	      bup> cd mybackup/
	      bup> ls
	      2010-02-05-185507@   2010-02-05-185508@	 latest@

	      bup> cd latest/
	      bup> ls
		(...etc...)

	      bup> get myfile
	      Saving 'myfile'
	      bup> quit
