Review Comment:
   It does - this is exactly the confusing part that i'm trying to improve with 
the doc changes
   - `previous-versions-max` is working anyway, and it just **untracks** the 
files from the newest metadata file
   - `delete-after-commit` says that the writer won't only **untrack** the old 
metadata file, but will also **delete** it
