Description

I have set up the backup feature by the codes below:

- GITLAB_BACKUP_SCHEDULE=daily
- GITLAB_BACKUP_TIME=01:00

But the default amount (last 10 backups kept ?) is too much for me. How can I customize this?

Research direction

Start with the backup configuration that uses GITLAB_BACKUP_SCHEDULE and GITLAB_BACKUP_TIME, then determine whether a retention setting exists for the default of 10 backups. Done means the supported way to customize the retained-backup count is documented and verified against the backup behavior.
