What I forgot to mention is that the reason I’m trying out `snapshot migrate` is the comment of @jkowalski [here](https://kopia.discourse.group/t/dealing-with-snapshot-corruption/767/2). The way I understood it is that through migrating I would eliminate errors and end up with an error-free new repository. Some files might be missing, but those would have had errors in the old repo anyway.

Did I understand that correctly?
