This discussion was created from the release Release 2.0.0b20, beta quality, for testing only.

How can I find out and verify which version of borgstore was included in this release build?

[ThomasWaldmann]

The most recent borgstore release is 0.3.0 from May 2025, so that was included when I made borg 2.0.0b20 in December 2025.

Trying to test a few beta releases, however one thing I seem to have missed is how to differentiate archives with the same name in commands (testing list). (needed to match precisely one archive, but matched 2.)

I thought I should be able to use the ID, like in

(venv) borg@hoxxes ~> BORG_REPO=/mnt/molly/borg/borg2repo/third borg list 99cf1d417b196cd52dd7dd9c8e03160eff4cd25727360ad74c7e5b7366470c4b
Enter passphrase for key /mnt/molly/borg/borg2repo/third: 
Command error: ['99cf1d417b196cd52dd7dd9c8e03160eff4cd25727360ad74c7e5b7366470c4b'] needed to match precisely one archive, but matched 0.
(venv) borg@hoxxes ~> BORG_REPO=/mnt/molly/borg/borg2repo/third borg repo-list --json | jq '.archives[-1].id'
Enter passphrase for key /mnt/molly/borg/borg2repo/third: 
"99cf1d417b196cd52dd7dd9c8e03160eff4cd25727360ad74c7e5b7366470c4b"
(venv) borg@hoxxes ~> 

And given an incorrect assumption based on presented 'mount' directories I tried:

When name is not found, would falling back to match full ID be acceptable?

Thank you, apologies I did not find it myself.
