+.TH NOTMUCH-RESTORE 1 2011-12-04 "Notmuch 0.10.2"
+.SH NAME
+notmuch-restore \- Restores the tags from the given file (see notmuch dump).
+
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+
+.B "notmuch restore"
+.RB [ "--accumulate" ]
+.RI "[ <" filename "> ]"
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+
+Restores the tags from the given file (see
+.BR "notmuch dump" ")."
+
+The input is read from the given filename, if any, or from stdin.
+
+Note: The dump file format is specifically chosen to be
+compatible with the format of files produced by sup-dump.
+So if you've previously been using sup for mail, then the
+.B "notmuch restore"
+command provides you a way to import all of your tags (or labels as
+sup calls them).
+
+The --accumulate switch causes the union of the existing and new tags to be
+applied, instead of replacing each message's tags as they are read in from the
+dump file.
+
+See \fBnotmuch-search-terms\fR(7)
+for details of the supported syntax for <search-terms>.
