rustic snapshots latest not documented

[Schweber]

I'm using rustic snapshots latest in a script and just noticed that i can't find it anymore in rustic snapshots --help and on the website.

Is this on purpose?

@Schweber what do you mean by "can't find it anymore"?

There is no purpose and it will be always available as rustic snapshots uses the identical snapshots selection as other commands - which all do support latest.

I meant to look that up and couldn't find it anymore. rustic --help also doesn't show it, man rustic doesn't exist.

Where is that documented?

I think it isn't documented. But I also think it was never ever documented. That's why I asked about "anymore" ;-)

Ok, then maybe i had a bright moment and guessed it. I find latest very useful and suggest to document it and (further?) features like that, so that users are aware of them.

I use latest to check on my systemd service that does daily backups. If there was a today filter or something like that, that would be even better for my usecase. That's why i tried to look up these filters and noticed that latest isn't there although i'm using it already.
