select files

Is there a way to select files to be backed up without having to run the command from within the directory being backed up?

Are you looking for the dry-run option? It has been implemented by one of our contributors: https://github.com/gilbertchen/duplicacy/pull/180.

You need to build from the source to get this feature.

No, I just want to be able to select the folder being backed up without having to run the program from within that folder. Seems silly and maybe I'm missing something, but can't seem to find a way.

Did you mean something like this: cd /path/to/repository && duplicacy backup -stats

Sure, if that works. I was thinking more of something like:

duplicacy backup "source" b2://bucket
