I'm afraid there's no easy reliable way at the moment. See this feature
request:
http://www.boxbackup.org/trac/wiki/FeatureRequests#VersionedRepository
There is a "kind of" restore to point in time feature in Boxi, to the best
approximation that I could do with the current store format, but Boxi is
not complete and there's absolutely no guarantee that it will restore your
data or not bite your dog.
Cheers, Chris.
