Description
I'm not sure to understand something.
I have this config :
- target_preserve_min latest
- target_preserve 3d
Today, I have 3 **backups**
- 2020-01-01
- 2020-01-02
- 2020-01-03 (today)
I run a **archive** command, so I should have in archive folder :
- 2020-01-01
- 2020-01-02
- 2020-01-03
Now, we are the 2020-01-12, I run a new backup. So I should have
- 2020-01-12
Now I run **archive**, logicaly I should have :
- 2020-01-12
But how that work, archive command will remove the old and will resend **all** ?
Or the system can still do the difference between the last archive 2020-01-03 and send the difference only ?

Research direction
Start with the documentation for the archive command and the target_preserve_min and target_preserve settings. Clarify the example's expected archive contents and state whether archiving after retention removes old archives and retransfers all backups or preserves an incremental difference from the last archive.
