Description
~~~~~~~~~~~
2022-06-23 23:19:19 +00:00
This command deletes archives from the repository.
2018-07-12 20:00:19 +00:00
Important: When deleting archives, repository disk space is **not** freed until
you run ``borg compact``.
2021-02-06 00:32:02 +00:00
When in doubt, use ``--dry-run --list`` to see what would be deleted.
When using ``--stats``, you will get some statistics about how much data was
deleted - the "Deleted data" deduplicated size there is most interesting as
that is how much your repository will shrink.
2018-07-12 20:00:19 +00:00
Please note that the "All archives" stats refer to the state after deletion.
2022-07-03 23:21:50 +00:00
You can delete multiple archives by specifying a matching shell pattern,
using the ``--glob-archives GLOB`` option (for more info on these patterns,
see :ref:`borg_patterns`).

2022-06-23 23:19:19 +00:00
Always first use ``--dry-run --list`` to see what would be deleted.
