I don't see the intent of this enhancement request. If you have good arguments and it's still important to you, please re-create an issue at https://github.com/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/issues

I would suggest making --remove-older-than usable on normal backups invocations.

In the current implementation it's only possible to run it on a backup folder, eg:

rdiff-backup --remove-older-than 5B /mnt/backup


But it could be useful to use that also on normal command invocations, something like:

rdiff-backup --remove-older-than 5B /mnt/original /mnt/backup


Thanks,

Fabio Varesano
