Maybe I state the obvious here but anyway:
Tonight I found a super comfi way to browse and restore data from Borg repositories. In vorta you can add any existing borg repository and mount the containing backups in a very functional GUI. Until now I somehow assumed you could only deal with backups created in vorta which is not true.
For context let me explain why I find that so useful: I am using a wonderful Borg / Borgmatic container from the borgmatic collective. It works super reliable. But for restoring files you have to mount the backup in the container and deal with the files inside the container. This can be difficult i.e. when looking for a specific file in a folder with a lot of files (like a foto collection where you accidentally deleted one file).
If any Borg users are out there: I would be interested what your workflows look like.
Yeah it’s just a frontend for Borg (which is great).
I just mount and browse in Nautilus. I have a mount script aliased to open-backup.
