If I do understand your request, you want to list the files that was deleted from the source directory over all the increment known by rdiff-backup repository ?
Under ./rdiff-backup-data directory, you could search for all files ending with '.missing' that should get you the list of files getting deleted. Something like this should get you started: find ./rdiff-backup-data/ -name '*.missing' e.g.: increments/home/ikus060/Documents/Icons/VMWare/16x16/devices.2017-08-16T13:00:18-04:00.missing /home/ikus060/Documents/Icons/VMWare/16x16/devices: is the full path of the file 2017-08-16T13:00:18-04:00 define when this files was deleted -- Patrik Dufresne Service Logiciel inc. http://www.patrikdufresne.com <http://patrikdufresne.com/>/ 514-971-6442 130 rue Doris St-Colomban, QC J5K 1T9 On Sun, Sep 15, 2019 at 4:06 AM Andreas Weber <s...@josoansi.de> wrote: > Dear all, > > is it possible to list deleted files and which increment first recorded > the deletion?
