Description

This command displays detailed information about the specified archive.

Please note that the deduplicated sizes of the individual archives do not add up to the deduplicated size of the repository (“all archives”), because the two are meaning different things:

This archive / deduplicated size = amount of data stored ONLY for this archive = unique chunks of this archive. All archives / deduplicated size = amount of data stored in the repo = all chunks in the repository.
