Output of restic version

restic 0.8.0 (v0.8.0-55-g95b6e4e9)
compiled with go1.9.2 on linux/amd64

Actual behavior

restic snapshots show alle snapshots orders by date
restic find shows all found files but not ordered by snapshot date

Expected behavior

  • Output should be sorted by snapshot timestamp.
  • Add snapshot id to long output of restic find -l if possible

Good idea, thanks for reporting it!

Sorting by snapshot timestamp should be fairly easy to implement: just sort the snapshots before starting the actual snapshot processing.

To print the full id it would be necessary in cmd_find.go to adapt statefulOutput.PrintPatternNormal accordingly.
