Occasionally, I write a large file (like an ISO) to the network and forget to delete it after it is burned / needed. Is there a way to delete this file from the repo without causing problems with the rest of the repo?


Failing a better way, I usually zero out the offending file after it has been moved into the increments directory. From a shell, type "> thebigfile.iso".

It would be nice to see the file/directory pruning feature that was being discussed on this list last week...
