camrcs
requires a data.csv file that stores information of what to upload, etc.
To create a new data.csv run:
cd any/path/to/store/file
camrcs up --new
First include all relevant information in data.csv, then run from the directory containing data.csv:
camrcs up
This will upload all data that has not yet been uploaded to RCS.
For example, to retrieve the archive with id
1 from data.csv run:
camrcs down -t 1
