Description

@Tryneus wrote this great writeup to describe the format of the backup files that rethinkdb export generates.
https://github.com/rethinkdb/rethinkdb/issues/3503#issuecomment-68910513

I think we should include this in our documentation (though it's not high priority).

Research direction

Read the format writeup in issue #3503, comment 68910513, then locate the appropriate backup or export section in the RethinkDB documentation repository. Incorporate the writeup as documentation for files generated by rethinkdb export; done means the export format is available in the published docs and remains consistent with the referenced description.
