How to limit the number of backup files?
Is there any way how to limit the number of backup files generated each time I build? Space on the server is limited

In reply to
You could write a shell script or Perl script that deletes the backup files before the new ones are built.
SHELL example:
# Delete Backup Files
rm /dir/subdir/yourdir/yoursubdir/cgibin/links/admin/backups/*
Then schedule this shell script to run on a nightly basis to remove the backup files.
Or you could download all your backup files to your local harddrive and delete the old backups in your server.
