    public class DeleteBackupCmd
    extends Object
    implements CollApiCmds.CollectionApiCommand
    An overseer command used to delete files associated with incremental backups.

    This assumes use of the incremental backup format, and not the (now deprecated) traditional 'full-snapshot' format. The deletion can either delete a specific BackupId, delete everything except the most recent N backup points, or can be used to trigger a "garbage collection" of unused index files in the backup repository.
