SUP-IMPORT-DUMP(1)					      General Commands Manual						SUP-IMPORT-DUMP(1)

NAME
       sup-import-dump - import message state dump to Sup index

SYNOPSIS
       sup-import-dump [options] dumpfile

DESCRIPTION
       Imports	message  state	previously  exported by sup-dump into the index.  sup-import-dump operates on the index only, so the messages must
       have already been added using sup-sync. If you need to recreate the index, see sup-sync --restore <filename> instead.

       Messages not mentioned in the dump file will not be modified.

OPTIONS

       --ignore-missing, -i
	      Silently skip over messages that are not in the index

       --warn-missing, -w
	      Warn about messages that are not in the index, but continue

       --abort-missing, -a
	      Abort on encountering messages that are not in the index (default)

       --atomic, -t
	      Use transaction to apply all changes atomically

       --dry-run, -n
	      Don't actually modify the index. Probably only useful with --verbose

       --version
	      Show version information
