NAME
       restic-repair-snapshots - Repair	snapshots

SYNOPSIS
       restic repair snapshots [flags] [snapshot ID] [...]

DESCRIPTION
       The  "repair  snapshots"	command	repairs	broken snapshots. It scans the
       given snapshots and generates new ones  with  damaged  directories  and
       file contents removed. If the broken snapshots are deleted, a prune run
       will be able to clean up	the repository.

       The  command  depends on	a correct index, thus make sure	to run "repair
       index" first!

WARNING
       Repairing and deleting broken snapshots causes data loss! It  will  re-
       move  broken  directories and modify broken files in the	modified snap-
       shots.

       If the contents of directories and files	are still available, the  bet-
       ter option is to	run "backup" which in that case	is able	to heal	exist-
       ing  snapshots.	Only use the "repair snapshots"	command	if you need to
       recover an old and broken snapshot!

EXIT STATUS
       Exit status is 0	if the command was successful.	Exit status  is	 1  if
       there  was any error.  Exit status is 10	if the repository does not ex-
       ist.  Exit status is 11 if the repository is already locked.  Exit sta-
       tus is 12 if the	password is incorrect.
