desync-prune - Remove unreferenced chunks from a store

desync prune <index> [<index>...] [flags]

-n, --concurrency=10 number of concurrent goroutines

-e, --error-retry=3 number of times to retry in case of network error

-b, --error-retry-base-interval=500ms initial retry delay, increases linearly with each subsequent attempt

-h, --help[=false] help for prune

-s, --store="" store to prune

-t, --trust-insecure[=false] trust invalid certificates

-y, --yes[=false] do not ask for confirmation before deleting chunks

--config="" config file (default $HOME/.config/desync/config.json)

--digest="sha512-256" digest algorithm, sha512-256 or sha256

--verbose[=false] verbose mode
