✨ KUP-PURGER 💅 — the purger for bup archives, bestie

okay so this is kup-purger(1), from the General Commands Manual section, and it's literally your little cleanup bestie for bup backups 🧹✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

kup-purger — purger for bup archives. yeah that's it, that's the whole job description 💖

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

kup-purger [options] <repository_path>

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So, Kup is a flexible backup solution for KDE, and it runs on the backup storage system Bup. That combo is lowkey iconic because it lets Kup do incremental backups fast — it only saves the parts of files that have actually changed since the last backup was taken. no re-uploading the whole thing, we love efficiency 🫶

kup-purger is the command that purgers bup archives. It's usually executed when we need to clean bup backup files. that's its whole main character moment: cleaning up 💅
