NAME
       desync-cache - Read indexes and copy the referenced chunks



SYNOPSIS
       desync cache <index> [<index>...] [flags]



DESCRIPTION
       Read chunk IDs from one or more index files (caibx or caidx) and copy
       the referenced chunks from the source store(s) into the target store
       given with -c, without assembling any blob on disk. This can be used to
       pre-populate a cache, or to replicate the chunks referenced by indexes
       into another store.  Use '-' to read (a single) index from STDIN.


       To exclude chunks that are known to exist in the target store already,
       use --ignore <index> which will skip any chunks from the given index.
       The same can be achieved by providing the chunks in their ASCII
       representation in a text file with --ignore-chunks <file>.



OPTIONS
       --ca-cert=""   trust authorities in this file, instead of OS trust
       store


       -c, --cache=""      target store the chunks are copied to


       -r, --cache-repair[=true]     replace invalid chunks in the cache from
       source


       --client-cert=""    path to client certificate for TLS authentication


       --client-key=""     path to client key for TLS authentication


       -n, --concurrency=10     number of concurrent goroutines


       -e, --error-retry=3      number of times to retry in case of network
       error


       -b, --error-retry-base-interval=500ms   initial retry delay, increases
       linearly with each subsequent attempt


       -h, --help[=false]  help for cache


       --ignore=[]    index(es) with chunks to be excluded


       --ignore-chunks=[]  text file with chunk IDs to be excluded


       -s, --store=[]      source store(s)


       -t, --trust-insecure[=false]  trust invalid certificates



OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS
       --config=""    config file (default $HOME/.config/desync/config.json)


       --digest="sha512-256"    digest algorithm, sha512-256 or sha256


       --verbose[=false]   verbose mode
