... most do neither, but rather do ${complex thing emerging from combination of implementation details of runtime and backup tool, impossible to reproduce in any other runtime, likely platform- and environment dependent; the same backup likely restores in different ways on different machines, and the same source files create different backups on different machines; creating a backup on one machine and restoring it on another does not generally result in the same files; and I have not yet mentioned what might happen if you mount the same source file system from different platforms, because results might vary a lot; also, we are only talking about paths here, not any of the other plethora of things that can and will be different between any element in OSxFSxEnv}.
