How to delete specific folder(s) from existing snapshots of repo?

Guys hi

I noticed that i was backing up file versioning folders produced by syncthing that i should’ve excluded causing repo to become too big.

How to delete all folders named .stversions from all existing snapshots of repo? (without breaking anything)

Hi there,

I’m quite a new user myself, but it seems that restic 0.15 has this as one of the highlights of the new 0.15 release.

Hope this helps.
