Just to close the loop on this, the command worked. Ironically the only
files it found that failed checksum are 4 resource/texture packs from two
steam games.
Due to podman/docker/wine there are a LOT of symbolic links which rsync
mentioned making it difficult to see what files would actually be
Well I'm trying to following to see if it finds any files that need to be
transferred:
I created a "user_backup" directory and then restored the last known good
backup to it
And then:
rsync --dry-run -ruh --checksum --existing /home/user_backup /home/user
The --checksum means it's very slow

Is it possible to do a conditional restore? Something like:
Only restore files which are the same date (mtime?) and the hashes don't
match.
Thoughts?
Assuming that it's worth recovering the data, the data presumably must
have some
So this is probably too complicated but I recently had a disk go bad but I
was able to copy most of the data off. I almost decided to restore from
backup anyway because I know some of the files are corrupted, but my backup
server had been down a few days because I was rearranging my data closet so
