Hi, I am using this https://gist.github.com/stnguyen90/fee636ff652b8ecbf761935b2aa254fb backup and restore script, i tried to restore a recent backup but i am receiving this error:

TypeScript
tar: /restore/builds.tar: Cannot open: No such file or directory
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

Whenever a backup is taken builds.tar is not created as well. Can anyone suggest what is going wrong and a new proper backup and restore method. Upgrading AppWrite is a risky move and now it seems like the backup and restore script isn't working well either.

TL;DR
User is trying to restore a backup using a script but encounters an error "tar: /restore/builds.tar: Cannot open: No such file or directory". The user mentions that builds.tar is not created during the backup. User requests help and asks for suggestions on a proper backup and restore method. Solution: It appears that the backup script is not creating the builds.tar file. The user may need to modify the script or find an alternative backup and restore method. Upgrading AppWrite is mentioned as a potential solution, but it is considered risky.
