+Enhancement: Add `--delete` option to `restore` command
+
+The `restore` command now supports a `--delete` option that allows removing files and directories
+from the target directory that do not exist in the snapshot. This option also allows files in the
+snapshot to replace non-empty directories.
+
+To check that only the expected files are deleted add the `--dry-run --verbose=2` options.
