Details:

I would suggest making --remove-older-than usable on normal backups
invocations.

In the current implementation it's only possible to run it on a backup
folder, eg:

rdiff-backup --remove-older-than 5B /mnt/backup


But it could be useful to use that also on normal command invocations,
something like:

rdiff-backup --remove-older-than 5B /mnt/original /mnt/backup


Thanks,

Fabio Varesano
