Remove files at /var/opt/gitlab/backups

General

Hi,

I tend to do something like this in a script:

#!/bin/bash
#
# Delete old gitlab backups

# Variables
GITLABBACKUPS=/var/opt/gitlab/backups
BACKUPDAYS=7

# Cleanup old backups
find $GiTLABBACKUPS -type f -ctime +$BACKUPDAYS -exec rm -f {} \;

change BACKUPDAYS=7 to a number you want. It’s set for 7 days more or less. Then set up a cronjob to run that once a day or something.
