NAME

       rmcp - remove NILFS2 checkpoints

SYNOPSIS

       rmcp [options] [device] checkpoint-range ...

DESCRIPTION

       rmcp  is  a  utility for removing checkpoints from the NILFS2 file system found in device.
       The checkpoints which user wants to remove are specified  with  one  or  more  checkpoint-
       ranges.   When  device  is  omitted,  rmcp  tries  to  find  a  NILFS2  file  system  from
       /proc/mounts.

       The checkpoint-range must be provided with one or two integers in  one  of  the  following
       way:

       cno    single checkpoint number

       start..end
              every checkpoint number between start and end

       ..end  every checkpoint number equal or younger than end

       start..
              every checkpoint number equal or greater than start

       This  command  is  valid only for mounted NILFS2 file systems, and will fail if the device
       has no active mounts.

OPTIONS

       -f, --force
              Ignore snapshots or nonexistent checkpoints.

       -i, --interactive
              Prompt before any removal.

       -h, --help
              Display help message and exit.

       -V, --version
              Display version and exit.
