* **Ignore** - simplest way is creating a file `.kopiaignore` in the root
* **Ignore** some paths by creating a file `.kopiaignore` in the root
of the backup target and in it list paths to ignore, one path per line,
relative to the root. An example: if you backup `/home/user`,
you create the ignore file at `/home/user/.kopiaignore`
and in it have `temp/` to ignore the directory temp in that users home.
and in it have `.cache/` and the next line `.local/share/Trash`.
* **Maintenance** is automatic.
* **Restore** from backups is most easily done by mounting a snapshot.<br>
Web GUI versions have button for it, cli version can do `sudo kopia mount all /mnt/temp &`
