remove old closed bugs and todo items to speed up wiki updates and reduce size
Remove closed bugs and todos that were least edited before 2014. Command line used: for f in $(grep -l '\[\[done\]\]' *.mdwn); do if [ -z $(git log --since=2014 --pretty=oneline "$f") ]; then git rm $f; git rm -rf $(echo "$f" | sed 's/.mdwn$//'); fi; done

-The command `git annex dropunused` currently takes a number, as referenced in output of last `git annex unused` command.
-
-When you want to drop all, or a range, this may be annoying, as you have to specify each number on the command line.
-
-A range argument, such as `1-1845`, possibly combined with other argument types (Cf. many print dialogues: `1,3,5-7,9`) would be great.
-
-I work around this lack as I want to drop all unused files anyway by something like this:
-
- git annex unused | grep -o -P "^ [0-9]+" | xargs git annex dropunused
-
-> It's designed to be used with `seq`. There's an example in the
-> [[walkthrough|walkthrough/unused_data]], and of course multiple seq calls can be used to
-> specifiy multiple ranges. So:
-
- git annex dropunused `seq 1 9` `seq 11 1845`
-
-> I don't see adding my own range operations to be an improvement worth
-> making; it'd arguably only be a complication. --[[Joey]] [[done]]

->> Actually, this did get implemented, since using seq could fall afoul
->> of command-line length limits in extreme cases.
