NAME
     restic-check - Check the repository for errors

SYNOPSIS
     restic check [flags]

DESCRIPTION
     The  "check" command tests the repository for errors and reports any errors
     it finds.

     By default, check verifies the  structural  consistency  and  integrity  of
     snapshots, trees and pack files. To also verify the integrity of the actual
     backed-up data, use the --read-data or --read-data-subset flags.

     By  default,  check creates a new temporary cache directory to verify data.
     To reuse the existing cache, use the --with-cache flag.

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 exist.  Exit
     status is 11 if the repository is already locked.	Exit status is 12 if the
     password is incorrect.
