From ba22560627f848f40891a56355ff26b6de1380bc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ludovic Courtès Date: Sun, 17 Jul 2022 17:15:02 +0200 Subject: guix gc: '--delete-generations' now deletes old Home generations. Previously, 'guix gc -d4m' would ignore Home generations. With this change, they are treated like profiles and generations that match the pattern are deleted. * guix/scripts/gc.scm (guix-gc)[delete-generations]: Add call to 'home-generation-base'. * doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix gc): Document the change. --- doc/guix.texi | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'doc') diff --git a/doc/guix.texi b/doc/guix.texi index 3c5864ec1a..cdecdf5b82 100644 --- a/doc/guix.texi +++ b/doc/guix.texi @@ -4362,7 +4362,8 @@ nothing and exit immediately. @item --delete-generations[=@var{duration}] @itemx -d [@var{duration}] Before starting the garbage collection process, delete all the generations -older than @var{duration}, for all the user profiles; when run as root, this +older than @var{duration}, for all the user profiles and home environment +generations; when run as root, this applies to all the profiles @emph{of all the users}.
