# Deletes files prefixed with ISO dates (YYYY-MM-DD-) older than RETENTION_DAYS days,
# but always retains the most-recent MIN_KEEP files even if they're "old".
# This script manages a set of backup files which are prefixed with ISO dates (YYYY-MM-DD).
# - As new files come in, we want to delete the old ones.
# - RETENTION_DAYS decides how old is "old".
# - But if no new files come in (e.g. the backup process is broken), we don't want to
# end up deleting _all_ the files, just because they're old.
# - MIN_KEEP decides how many files to keep.
#
# Usage: ./retain.sh --dry-run <directory>
