Restore Backups In Place

Problem Statement

Some people may only backup world folders, jarfiles, etc. There should be a way to restore those without creating a whole new server

Who will benefit?

Folks who only want to backup exclusive files.

Benefits and risks

What benefits does this bring?
    - Space saving
    - Better restore usability for those utilizing backup exclusions. 

What risks might this introduce?
    - Overwriting unnecessary files
    - Confusion upon which files should be replaced when unzipping an archive

Proposed solution

Unzip the archive to a temp dir then copy all the files/directories into the server directory and replace existing folders of the same name.

Examples

Priority/Severity

• High (This will bring a huge increase in performance/productivity/usability)
• Medium (This will bring a good increase in performance/productivity/usability)
• Low (anything else e.g., trivial, minor improvements)
