Output of restic version

https://restic.readthedocs.io/en/latest/050_restore.html

What should restic do differently? Which functionality do you think we should add?

There should be an --inplace parameter to allow restic to restore it's files in place.
Basically what a git checkout would do.

What are you trying to do? What problem would this solve?

I need to restore a snapshot, keeping the folder structure exactly as it was recorded as.
However it stores over different harddrives, C:\, G:\ and F:\. In other words, there's no parent folder those pathes are all relative to.
