When the borg create command is used with the --progress argument, it output like this: 5.50 GB O 5.10 GB C 23.95 kB D 15600 N /path/to/current/file/being/processed I was able to locate what the abbreviations above stand for here : > The --progress option shows (from left to right) Original, Compressed > and Deduplicated (O, C and D, respectively), then the Number of files > (N) processed so far, followed by the currently processed path. -source Yet, I'm still not certain about the meaning of Deduplicated as it is used here. In the example above, Deduplicated's value is 23.95 kB. Does that mean that out of the 5GB of data, processed so far, only 23.95 kB of it needed to be transferred because that's the only unique data found since my last archival into the repository?
