hello !

you can`t!

at least there isn`t a "clean" or an "official" way for this.
you could delete that dir/file from the backup-dir and also from the increments dir (if there is an increment for this)

BUT:
there is information about that backup' ed data in the metadata files, which would still exist and reference files, which don`t exist anymore.

don`t know if this can be really problematic, though.

deleting files from the backup has been requested as a feature several times.

regards
roland

I read the doc again and realized that I may have written something stupid
here.
--remove-older-than 0B or --remove-older-than 1B will remove all the files
that were here before the last session (or the one before, I'm a little bit
confused between 0B and 1B), won't it ?

How can I remove the data from the last session only ?
