I also was wondering why the script does not use following command: wal-g delete retain FULL $DAYS_TO_RETAIN
This is probably an easier way instead of calculating the $BEFORE variable

Isn't this going to break wal-e because it still prints name in version 1.1.1?

@bo0ts @emrah83 I updated my regex to be backwards compatible with wal-e. The regex script already has been updated, I think, given that you are referring to this script.

any chance this would get approved and merged, we're facing also the same issue and tested that this fixes the issue

If this is already touched, can we discuss if there is an option to have BACKUP_NUM_TO_RETAIN really be the number of backups and not the DAYS_TO_RETAIN this is confusing if I have multiple backups a day and then there are still more backups available then set by me via BACKUP_NUM_TO_RETAIN

@Yingrjimsch I'd advise you to create a separate issue for this :)

I'd like to see this merged asap, because I think it will take some time to get the version of spilo bumped on the operator, might want to use a custom build for the time being.
