Does bob clean old nightly build caches? about bob HOT 6 CLOSED

I suddenly find that bob erase will remove all installed versions, so it's cleaned all caches for me. I just re-installed the stable version:

BTW, the config.json and rollback_limit=3 seems not working for me, I set them but caches still exists.

Ye it's not meant to remove rollbacks when using bob, but only when installing a new nightly version which is why i suggested you remove them yourself.

This is odd, bob should remove nightly rollbacks when they go above 3, show me your bob config. also I suggest you just remove the oldest rollbacks (listed by age when doing bob rollback) and report back when this persists.

emmmm, I didn't config bob, and based on this section: https://github.com/MordechaiHadad/bob?tab=readme-ov-file#-configuration.

I don't have directory named: ~/Library/Application\ Support/bob, I'm using macbook pro.

I see, could you make a toml/json file somewhere with rollback_limit set 3 three and set the file location via BOB_CONFIG env var? (but that would matter if you create a new rollback which you probably wont for a day)
