+Bugfix: Correct restore progress information if an error occurs
+
+If an error occurred while restoring a snapshot, this could cause the restore
+progress bar to show incorrect information. In addition, if a data file could
+not be loaded completely, then errors would also be reported for some already
+restored files.
+
+We have improved the error reporting of the restore command to be more accurate.
