NAME
     restic-dump - Print backed-up files or folders to stdout

SYNOPSIS
     restic dump [flags] snapshotID file

DESCRIPTION
     The "dump" command extracts files from a snapshot from the repository. If a
     single file is selected, it prints its contents to stdout. Folders are out-
     put as a tar (default) or zip file containing the contents of the specified
     folder.   Pass  "/"  as  file name to dump the whole snapshot as an archive
     file.

     The special snapshotID "latest" can be used to use the latest  snapshot  in
     the repository.

     To  include  the folder content at the root of the archive, you can use the
     "snapshotID:subfolder" syntax, where "subfolder" is a path within the snap-
     shot tree as shown by "restic ls".

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.
