# Backup and Restore
Gitea currently has a `dump` command that will save your installation to a zip file. There will be a `restore` command implemented at some point in the future. You will be able to use this to back up your installation, as well as make migrating servers easier.

file can be unpacked and used to restore an instance.
## Backup Command (`dump`)
First, switch to the user running gitea: `su git` (or whatever user you are using). Run `./gitea dump` in the gitea installation directory. You should see some output similar to this:

* `gitea-db.sql` - SQL dump of your database.
* `gitea-repo.zip` - This zip will be a complete copy of your repo folder.
See Config -> repository -> `ROOT` for the location.
* `log/` - this will contain various logs. You don't need these if you are doing
a migration.

Intermediate backup files are created in a temporary directory specified either with the `--tempdir` command-line parameter or the `TMPDIR` environment variable.

## Restore Command (`restore`)
WIP: Does not exist yet.
There is currently no support for a recovery command. It is a manual process that mostly
involves moving files to their correct locations and restoring a database dump.
Example:
```
apt-get install gitea
unzip gitea-dump-1482906742.zip
cd gitea-dump-1482906742
mv custom/conf/app.ini /etc/gitea/conf/app.ini
unzip gitea-repo.zip
mv gitea-repo/* /var/lib/gitea/repositories/
chown -R gitea:gitea /etc/gitea/conf/app.ini /var/lib/gitea/repositories/
mysql -u$USER -p$PASS $DATABASE <gitea-db.sql
# or sqlite3 $DATABASE_PATH <gitea-db.sql
service gitea restart
```
