 10. Verify your backup by first fetching the snapshot ID:
 
 ```bash
-restic -r /path/to/repo snapshots
+restic snapshots -r /path/to/repo
 ```
 
 Then list the files within to verify eveything is there:
 
 ```bash
-restic ls -r /path/to/repo --long $SNAPSHOT_ID
+restic ls --long -r /path/to/repo $SNAPSHOT_ID
 ```
 
 Then compare the backup size to the size of the source. This will retrieve the uncompressed size of the repo, and it won't perfectly align. But it should give you an idea.
 
 ```bash
-restic ls -r /path/to/repo stats $SNAPSHOT_ID
+restic stats -r /path/to/repo
 ```
 
 And finally, check the integrity of the repo:
 
 ```bash
-restic -r /path/to/repo check
+restic check -r /path/to/repo
 ```
