I'm having trouble restoring a particular increment. The rdiff-backup file shows I did a backup on 2025-05-04. Yet: eric@fedora:/run/media/eric$ sudo rdiff-backup restore --at 2025-05-04 "run/media/eric/backup 202025-02/XPS-2025-02/var/www/html" /var/www/html [sudo] password for eric: WARNING: Server will be called with deprecated command line interface to guarantee compatibility. It might lead to a deprecation warning from newer rdiff-backup versions. Use '--api-version 201' (or higher) to avoid it.
