+-r, \--remote=*host*:*path*
+:   Retrieves objects from the given remote repository instead of the
+    local one. *path* may be blank, in which case the default remote
+    repository is used.  The connection to the remote server is made
+    with SSH.  If you'd like to specify which port, user or private
+    key to use for the SSH connection, we recommend you use the
+    `~/.ssh/config` file.  Even though the data source is remote, a
+    local bup repository is still required.
