[rdiff-backup-users] Where did the restored folder go to?

[Martin Fisher]

Dear All

I have just used my rdiff-backup for the first time, to restore the
contents of a folder (in Ubuntu 7.10) that I accidentally deleted, i.e.
not in trash). The folder is named 'Harris 2007-48[frmtd]'. I checked
that the folder was in the backup, and read the documentation and used:

rdiff-backup -r now
'/media/ext3backup/rdiff-backup/Documents/Oryx/42(1)/Harris
2007_48[frmtd]' '/home/martin/Documents/Oryx/42(1)/Harris 2007_48
[frmtd]'

It ran without any comment, and now the folder no longer exists in
either the backup or in the restore directory. Could anybody kindly tell
me (1) what I have done wrong, and (2) whether there is yet anyway of
finding the file?

With grateful thanks, Martin
