Remove a snapshot-id

How do I remove a snapshot-id from my Duplicacy backup system?

I believe I can just

  • Manually delete the directory and its contents (numbered revision files) from the ‘snapshots’ directory on the storage. For example, delete the directory snapshots/my-work-computer-backup inside the B2 bucket that I was using for backup storage.
  • Delete any scheduled jobs (managed by Duplicacy Web-UI, cron, etc) which involve the snapshot-id.

And then, if I want to remove chunks that were unique to that snapshot-id, I could run prune -exhaustive.

Just making sure this won’t have any unintended effects.

prune -a -exhaustive

Yes. And if you need to free up space immediately, you can add -exclusive flag, but ensure no other jobs are touching the storage for the duration.
