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  in-
     dex" first!

WARNING
     Repairing	and  deleting  broken snapshots causes data loss! It will remove
     broken directories and modify broken files in the modified snapshots.

     If the contents of directories and files are still  available,  the  better
     option is to run "backup" which in that case is able to heal existing snap-
     shots.  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 exist.  Exit
     status is 11 if the repository is already locked.	Exit status is 12 if the
     password is incorrect.
