### Idempotent versions on delete markers

Duplicate delete markers are not created on MinIO buckets with versioning, if an application performs a soft delete on an object repeatedly - that object will only ever have a single DELETE marker for all such successive attempts. This is done to ensure that repeated soft deletes do not ever need multiple versions in the first place.

### 3.3 Automatic removal of delete markers with no other versions

When an object has only one version as a delete marker, the latter can be automatically removed after a certain number of days using the following configuration:

```
{
    "Rules": [
        {
            "ID": "Removing all delete markers",
            "Expiration": {
                "ExpiredObjectDeleteMarker": true

./mc encrypt set sse-s3 myminio/versioned

./mc mirror internal myminio/versioned/ --quiet >/dev/null

## Soft delete (creates delete markers)
./mc rm -r --force myminio/versioned >/dev/null

## mirror again to create another set of version on top
./mc mirror internal myminio/versioned/ --quiet >/dev/null

    List<Throwable> getExceptions();

    MavenExecutionResult addException(Throwable e);
