This will remove most snapshots (not all but one, like it implies): restic -r "/mnt/sdb2/RESTIC/WRT3200ACM/" forget --keep-last 1<syntaxhighlight lang="text">

For safety reasons, restic refuses to act on an “empty” policy. For example, if one were to specify --keep-last 0 to forget all snapshots in the repository, restic will respond that no snapshots will be removed. To delete all snapshots, use --keep-last 1 and then finally remove the last snapshot ID manually (by passing the ID to forget).
