Due to a small bug, the b14 usage docs do not link to the borg undelete part, it is there (it can be also found by searching for "undelete"):

While trying to transfer a repo from 1.x to 2, I ran into a "no space left on device" issue:

borgstore.backends.errors.BackendError: rclone rc command failed: error 500: {

This is imho somehow strange as the command was
borg2 transfer --repo rclone:pd/mail --from-borg1 --other-repo /tmp/hi/mail

and pd is a "pixeldrain" backend, so no local storage. And rclone:pd schould be correct since b13.

borgstore is not bundled into borg, but automatically installed via dependencies.
if you used pip to install, check pip freeze output.

[ThomasWaldmann]

Hmm, guess the rclone spec isn't right.

rclone would use pd:mail, so for borg it would be rclone:pd:mail.

when giving pd/mail to rclone, it thinks you want to use a local fs path.

I meant bundled within the binary.

This is IMHO confusing. In case of S3 storages, rclone:remote:bucket would be the bucket. In other cases it's just the subdirectory?

[ThomasWaldmann]

It's the way how rclone expects it, see the rclone docs.
