Update: Nah, it seems it errors out on the first difference.
I may fiddle with pulling stuff from the DB, but another possibility
is to just restore the files to a seperate temporary location.
If space is tight, a script could and have a script periodically
cat /dev/null over the ones that are done being written... For example:
find /var/temprestore/ -type f -and -mmin +5 -and -size +1
Should list all normal files in the directory that were not modified
within the last five minutes and take up more than one block on the
disk as candidates for space-saving wiping during the restore process.
After that it should be possible to have a script iterate over all
the files in the temp directory, get their permission bits, and apply
them to the corresponding file in the real directory if it exists.
