Examples
~~~~~~~~
::
# Create a backup with fast, low compression
$ borg create archive /some/files --compression lz4
# Then recompress it — this might take longer, but the backup has already completed,
# so there are no inconsistencies from a long-running backup job.
$ borg recreate -a archive --recompress --compression zlib,9
# Remove unwanted files from all archives in a repository.
# Note the relative path for the --exclude option — archives only contain relative paths.
$ borg recreate --exclude home/icke/Pictures/drunk_photos
# Change the archive comment
$ borg create --comment "This is a comment" archivename ~
$ borg info -a archivename

$ borg recreate --comment "This is a better comment" -a archivename
