How to use the app? #46

Hi, can somebody tell me how to use it??

I don't see any changes in the UI. And I could not find any documentation on how to use it, or where to look at.

I have /mnt/home ZFS mountpoint with some user home directories like /mnt/home/tester and /mnt/home/anotherguy. The snapshots are in /mnt/home/.zfs/snapshot, they are recognised in the settings page.

Snapshot format: /srv/home/.zfs/snapshot/%snapshot%/ Date format: *-Y-m-d-Hi

But how to use them is a big mystery to me.

Same question here, it's installed and found the snapshots, but I see no changes in the UI.

Also curious how to go about finding snapshots for a deleted folder/file, since there is no entry in the UI.

Once configured, the snapshots should be shown in the versions ui, replacing the builtin versions.

There is currently no way to get deleted files from snapshots with this app.
