[rdiff-backup-users] Restore for Windows version

[listserv . traffic]

Ok, I'm feeling stupid, but I can't make this work today..

Trying to restore a directory with all files and subdirs

The backup is something like this:

rdiff-backup c:/abc-data/ E:/abc-backup/main-data/

Both C and E are local

I want to restore:
  c:/abc-data/way/down/the/path/directory/

  So, I want everything from .../directory/*

  I  want to restore to a different path that where it came from, say,
  in this case
  e:/restore

So, I thought this would get me what I wanted

rdiff-backup                       -r                       2010-09-16
E:/abc-backup/main-data/abc-data/way/down/the/path/directory/
e:/restore

But it doesn't. It claims there's no repository there.

but the repository is here: E:/abc-backup/main-data

I just want that one directory down the path...

Suggestions? Am I being particularly dense?
