Hi all,
I had a bit of a problem with my computer's drive, which shouldn't have been
a problem except I found out that all of my daily backups somehow became
corrupted. I used DejaDup, the Gui to duplicity. It gave me a problem
with a SHA1 hash mismatch, which after several hours, I decided it was
hopeless to try to repair all of the messed up archives. I managed to find
these instructions here on how to restore manually:
https://live.gnome.org/DejaDup/Help/Restore/WorstCase#Restoring_by_Hand.
But, I get stuck on the last step, how to recombine every file. Is there
any way to automate the following command for all my directories? I have 30
GB of files still not combined. I know that some data will be corupted but
there were only a few of the archives damaged. Any help would be
appreciated, thanks in advance...
Example Command:
cd multivolume_snapshot/home/jane/essay.txt
cat * > essay.txt
