[Box Backup] Re: How can I delete files/directories from the store?

Actually I restarted the client in this 3 days period so probably I
will have to wait a little more and see what will happen.

Here is a concern that I have.
Imagine the following situation:
          Used    32738.2Mb  99% ***********************************
     Old files      122.1Mb   0%
 Deleted files     1182.5Mb   2% *
   Directories      195.3Mb   0%
    Soft limit    40960.0Mb  90% ************************************
    Hard limit    45056.0Mb 100% ****************************************

Suddenly I realise that I need 5GB NOW. I have in deleted and old
files only 1.3GB. I can't wait 2 days so the removed locations from
bbackuped.conf are deleted. What do I do in this situation? Isn't
there a command to manually remove a location/directory/file?

Thanks
