Rolling backups #34

@cperciva @gperciva and others

I'm pondering the idea of having a rolling backup option for the GUI in the future. This should be a per job option as far as I am concerned. How do you feel about this? Any ideas, requests in regards to this?

cperciva commented 8 years ago

By "rolling" you mean to delete old backups so that only a fixed number are retained? Yes, this definitely seems like something to have enabled/disabled and configured (how many backups to keep) on a per-job basis.

@cperciva Yes.
