+// TestRestoreFail
+// Motivation: Cause a kopia snapshot restore command to fail, ensure non-zero exit code.
+// Description:
+//		1. Create kopia repo
+//		2. Create a directory tree for testing
+//		3. Issue kopia blob list before issuing any snapshots
+//		4. Create a snapshot of the source directory, parse the snapshot ID
+//		5. Issue another kopia blob list, find the blob IDs that were not
+//			present in the previous blob list.
+//		6. Find a pack blob by searching for a blob ID with the "p" prefix
+//		7. Issue kopia blob delete on the ID of the found pack blob
+//		8. Attempt a snapshot restore on the snapshot, expecting failure
+// Pass Criteria: Kopia commands issue successfully, except the final restore
+//		command is expected to fail. Expect to find new blobs after a snapshot
+//		and expect one of them is a pack blob type prefixed with "p".
