1 month ago Thanks for this. I can't even find any information on where to get git in any of this repository. I found git-lfs fine, but since I cant find the dependency it requires (git), then the mod is not working. Do you know where I can find this dependency?
Adding basic instructions to the wiki on how to directly use git to retrieve backup files may be beneficial as it gives a lot more utility to users who are not very familiar with git.
If the world files become corrupted and the server will not launch: git archive -o world.zip 5b8ccfff066793e72e4262496a5a7958be5b7c88 world
For whatever reason someone wants just their playerdata restored: git archive -o player.zip 5b8ccfff066793e72e4262496a5a7958be5b7c88 world\playerdata
You want to launch a server exactly how it was the other day for whatever reason, regardless of config, mod, or world changes: git archive -o snapshot.zip 5b8ccfff066793e72e4262496a5a7958be5b7c88
Want to see a list of all backups even if the server is not running: git log --all
Get a list of all backups since a few days ago: git log --all --since=2023-27-12
Get a list of all backups since a few days ago until last night: git log --all --since=2023-23-12 --until=2023-29-12-23:00:00
