Hi everybody, I've now located why our backup repo shrinks every month: git gc --prune=2d doesn't do what I expected, and differs a lot from --prune=48h. The latter actually means 'older than two days', while the former is 'since the second day of this month, same time as now'. Even '2d ago' does not help - '2 days ago' does. Mildly irritating, and worse, hard to find in the documentation. I failed at the latter and fell back to the sources, finding './bin-wrappers/test-date approxidate' for trying. Where would I look? - Andreas -- "Totally trivial. Famous last words." From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@*.org> Date: Fri, 22 Jan 2010 07:29:21 -0800
