[rdiff-backup-users] How to limit a restore to a single directory (without the subdirectories)

[Olaf Dabrunz]

Hello,

something accidentially deleted all files in a directory, but not the
subdirectories or any files in there. In other words, something did a
"rm -f dir/*" (non-recursive).

     before          after
     ------          -----
     dir1/           dir1/
     file1           dir2/
     dir2/
     file2

How do I tell rdiff-backup to just restore the files in the directory,
but not the subdirectories? (Scanning all subdirectories takes hours...)

Regards,
