zvault-restore(1) -- Restore a backup or subtree
================================================
## SYNOPSIS
`zvault restore [OPTIONS] <BACKUP> <DST>`
## DESCRIPTION
This subcommand restores a backup or a backup subtree `BACKUP` into the folder
`DST`.
The backup or backup subtree given by `BACKUP` must be in the format
`[repository]::backup_name[::subtree]` as described in _zvault(1)_.
If `repository` is omitted, the default repository location is used instead.
If `--tar` is set, the data is written to a tar file named `DST`. In this case
`DST` must not exist. If `DST` is `-`, the data will be written to stdout.

If `--tar` is not set, the data will be written into the existing folder `DST`.
## OPTIONS
* `--tar`:
