The godoc for filepath.Match has the syntax, which is what is important
for writing patterns. Use pkg.go.dev instead of golang.org/pkg.
For #4245. Not all links fixed yet.
The keyfile provided by restic's own webserver (https://restic.net) should be
more stable than relying on public keyservers. So I changed the URL to the
GPG keyfile, as recommended by MichaelEischer.
I like the idea of verifying the integrity of applications, I download from the internet. So I was very happy to see that restic does provide SHA256-checksums which are signed with the maintainers PGP key.
The only thing I miss: I could not find a direct way to download the used PGP key and verify the keys fingerprint.
Doing some searches, I found:

* https://restic.net/blog/2015-09-16/verifying-code-archive-integrity/
To help other restic users, I think you should add information about your PGP key/fingerprint to this installation doc, too. To save you some precious time, I created a draft, how this doc might be expanded, in this pull-request. You are free to accept it or change the text to your liking.
I copied the key/fingerprint text from: ``restic/restic/master/doc/090_participating.rst``
Thank you for your work in restic!
The standard UNIX-style ordering of command-line arguments places
optional flags before other positional arguments. All of restic's
commands support this ordering, but some of the usage strings showed the
flags after the positional arguments (which restic also parses just
fine). This change updates the doc strings to reflect the standard
ordering.
Because the `restic help` command comes directly from Cobra, there does
not appear to be a way to update the argument ordering in its usage
string, so it maintains the non-standard ordering (positional arguments
before optional flags).
Go can cross compile to older ARM architectures (e.g. v5). In order to
do so one needs to use the GOARM parameter as documented in
https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/GoArm
I've added a hint for pre-compiled binaries on windows where to place them for easier use in the shell or in scripts without the hassle for absolute paths.
