> So, in backup usage, the backup root dir is called backup_root. In restore, it is called backup_path. I presume these are meant to refer to the same thing?
> In restore, the id for the backup is the backup_id but in describe when I am to pass a backup id, it is called backupId. Ditto on delete. In the dump of the history, the backup id is called 'ID'.
> Suggest you use same name for the arg everywhere. The inconsistency makes the tool appear untrustworthy.
