Hello

I had a couple of questions about restore…

First `kopia snapshot restore ` & `kopia restore ` I guess these are just aliases… right?

Is it possible to do a incremental restore by terminating and resuming with `--skip-existing` ?  
`kopia restore k..... /data/... --write-files-atonomically`  
`kopia restore k..... /data/... --write-files-atonomically --skip-existing`

Thanks,

Regards,  
SD.
