    # actually free disk space:
    $ borg compact /path/to/repo

    # delete all archives whose names begin with the machine's hostname followed by "-"
    $ borg delete --glob-archives '{hostname}-*' /path/to/repo

    # delete all archives whose names contain "-2012-"
    $ borg delete --glob-archives '*-2012-*' /path/to/repo

    # see what would be deleted if delete were run without --dry-run
    $ borg delete --list --dry-run -a '*-May-*' /path/to/repo

    # delete the whole repository and the related local cache:
    $ borg delete /path/to/repo
