NAME
     restic-copy - Copy snapshots from one repository to another

SYNOPSIS
     restic copy [flags] [snapshotID ...]

DESCRIPTION
     The  "copy" command copies one or more snapshots from one repository to an-
     other.

     NOTE: This process will have to both download (read) and upload (write) the
     entire snapshot(s) due to the different encryption keys used in the  source
     and  destination  repositories.  This /may incur higher bandwidth usage and
     costs/ than expected during normal backup runs.

     NOTE: The copying process does not re-chunk files, which may break dedupli-
     cation between the files copied and files already stored in the destination
     repository.  This means that copied files, which existed in both the source
     and destination repository, /may occupy up to twice  their  space/  in  the
     destination  repository.	This  can  be  mitigated by the "--copy-chunker-
     params" option when initializing a new  destination  repository  using  the
     "init" command.

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.
