Description
It seems the weekly parameter is not working correctly at the start of the year.
I have these files:
2020-12-26
2021-01-02
2021-01-09
2021-01-16
2021-01-23
2021-01-30
Invoking rotate-backups with 4 weeks it skips 2021-01-09 and keeps 2021-01-02 instead. Expected behaviour was to keep 2021-01-09 and delete 2021-01-02.
Command
rotate-backups --weekly 4 ...
Output
rotate_backups[3695] INFO Found 6 timestamped backups in ...

Increasing to 5 weeks includes 2021-01-09 again.
