Hi Nikolaus, 


>>Yeah, this is never going to work. That way you're loosing all the 
metadata, and the local backend uses a different file format. 

That sucks. :( 

>>In my last email, I asked if you could fsck.s3ql. 

Yes I did mention that I can fsck using the 2.12 client, didn't I (sorry if 
I didn't -- many things on mind at moment)?

>>What do you mean with "may"? Did you fix it, or did you not? Or did you 
mean "caused" rather than "fixed"? 

The Upgrade previously failed at 33.2%; this new upgrade, after fscking and 
removing the file it didn't like, is still running and I won't know if the 
removal of the spurious file in the db has worked yet.

>>This sounds as if you are looking for contrib/clone_fs.py. 

Please tell me how to use this to extract whole files? If this can work I 
wouldn't mind putting together a emergency recovery doc for the wiki.
