Duplicity

Recreate archive dir

Asked by Fridtjof Busse

The manpage currently states for "--archive-dir":
The archive directory should not be deleted, or duplicity will have to recreate it from the remote repository (which may require decrypting the backup contents).

However, the manpage does not mention how to actually recreate the archive directory in case it got deleted.

Duplicity will automatically recreate it on the next run.
