Remove the --force, as this can cause data loss

Open douglascrp opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

As stated by the duplicity's manual, the force option can be dangerous:

--force
    Proceed even if data loss might result. Duplicity will let the user know when this option is required.

Because of that, I believe it should be removed from the script.

I am not sure how to deal with this option, as it is required to be included when the users want to have the old backups excluded in order to free disk space. Does anyone have any opinion on the topic?
