Name

borg-umount − un-mount the FUSE filesystem

SYNOPSIS

borg [common options] umount [options] MOUNTPOINT

DESCRIPTION

This command unmounts a FUSE filesystem that was mounted with borg mount.

This is a convenience wrapper that just calls the platform−specific shell command − usually this is either umount or fusermount −u.

OPTIONS

See borg−common(1) for common options of Borg commands.

arguments

MOUNTPOINT

mountpoint of the filesystem to umount

EXAMPLES

# Mounting the repository shows all archives.
# Archives are loaded lazily, expect some delay when navigating to an archive
# for the first time.
$ borg mount /path/to/repo /tmp/mymountpoint
$ ls /tmp/mymountpoint
root−2016−02−14 root−2016−02−15
$ borg umount /tmp/mymountpoint

# Mounting a specific archive is possible as well.
$ borg mount /path/to/repo::root−2016−02−15 /tmp/mymountpoint
$ ls /tmp/mymountpoint
bin boot etc home lib lib64 lost+found media mnt opt
root sbin srv tmp usr var
$ borg umount /tmp/mymountpoint

# The "versions view" merges all archives in the repository
# and provides a versioned view on files.
$ borg mount −o versions /path/to/repo /tmp/mymountpoint
$ ls −l /tmp/mymountpoint/home/user/doc.txt/

$ borg umount /tmp/mymountpoint

# Archive filters are supported.
# These are especially handy for the "versions view",
# which does not support lazy processing of archives.
$ borg mount −o versions −−glob−archives '*−my−home' −−last 10 /path/to/repo /tmp/mymountpoint

# Exclusion options are supported.
# These can speed up mounting and lower memory needs significantly.
$ borg mount /path/to/repo /tmp/mymountpoint only/that/path
$ borg mount −−exclude '...' /path/to/repo /tmp/mymountpoint

# When using BORG_REPO env var, use :: as positional argument:
export BORG_REPO=/path/to/repo
# Mount the whole repo:
borg mount :: /tmp/mymountpoint
# Mount some specific archive:
borg mount ::root−2016−02−15 /tmp/mymountpoint
