dedup only handles a single file at a time, so using tar is advised.
To deduplicate a directory tree invoke dup-pack(1) as follows:
- tar -c ~/dir | dup-pack -r repo foo
+ tar -cf - ~/dir | dup-pack -r repo foo
This will create a new snapshot called foo under repo/archive/.
To extract the snapshot:
- dup-unpack -r repo foo | tar -x
+ dup-unpack -r repo foo | tar -xf -

To create a snapshot named foo:
- tar -c ~/dir | dup-pack -k keyfile -r repo foo

To extract the snapshot:
- dup-unpack -k keyfile -r repo foo | tar -x

All tools understand the -k option when operating on an encrypted
dedup repository.
