Snapshots maintenance

[Francisco Reyes <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

How does one adjust the number of snapshots for hammer to keep?

In the man page it says:
HAMMER version 3+
The configuration file is saved in file system meta-data
. ...
The format of the configuration file is:
snapshots  <period> <retention-time> [any]

What ist he name of the configuration file?
. snapshots.period ? That files does not seem human readable/editable.

Also the man page has: "see hammer config."
Is that another section in the man page or another man page? Tried man 5 
hammer and searchign for "hammer config" in the main man page.

To delete a snapshot do I just delete the link and prune?
Example
I deleted a few links from /var/hammer/root and then did
hammer prune /var/hammer/root

Don't see any difference in df. When/how is the space regained?
Had a lot of extra data so now that I cleaned things up I want to delete the 
snapshots with the extra data to get the space back.
