- - bup only has experimental support for pruning old backups.
-
- While you should now be able to drop old saves and branches with
- `bup rm`, and reclaim the space occupied by data that's no longer
- needed by other backups with `bup gc`, these commands are
- experimental, and should be handled with great care. See the
- man pages for more information.
-
- Unless you want to help test the new commands, one possible
- workaround is to just start a new BUP_DIR occasionally,
- i.e. bup-2013, bup-2014...
