Enhancement: Add new command repair
Enhancement: Add `repair index` and `repair snapshots` commands
We've added a new command repair which allows to repair snapshots even if needed
parts of it are not accessable in the repository. Note that using this command
can lead to data loss!
The `rebuild-index` command has been renamed to `repair index`. The old name
will still work, but is deprecated.
Some corrupted repositories were reported in several issues and so far restic
lacked a possibility to accept data loss but clean those up such that the
repository returns to a sane state. This possibility was now added.
When a snapshot was damaged, the only option up to now was to completely forget
the snapshot, even if only some unimportant file was damaged.
We've added a `repair snapshots` command, which can repair snapshots by removing
damaged directories and missing files contents. Note that using this command
can lead to data loss! Please see the "Troubleshooting" section in the documentation
for more details.
