Let's imagine your setting says 3 weeks to keep. Today we do have week number 48 in this year. What do you think? Will BIT keep the 3 backups for week 45, 46 and 47 or 46, 47 and 48?
Personally, I would expect that there are backups for weeks 46, 47 and 48, *if and only if* the backup for week 48 was already made (i.e. we are past the scheduled point in time for the weekly backup). But I want to back up a bit: On Tuesday, November 26th, 2024 at 5:56 AM, c.buhtz@posteo.jp <c.buhtz@posteo.jp> wrote:
Does this take the current week into account even if it is not yet complete
I think this has the same problem with wording that the existing text has. I think "take into account" could mean more than one thing. Here is some more clear wording: "Keep up to X weekly backups, made at <scheduled day of week/time> each week". It's very clear from that, how it should work. But if you wanted it to work differently, then it might be harder to explain clearly :) Karl Knechtel {:>
