       timeshift --delete-all

NOTES

       1) --create will always create a new snapshot
       2) --check will create a snapshot only if a scheduled snapshot is due
       3) Use --restore without other options to select options interactively
       4) UUID can be specified instead of device name
       5) Default values will be loaded from app config if options are not specified
