Hello Mac friends. Time Machine at least on macOS Sonoma seems to just backup mindlessly until the Time Machine disk is full. Is there a good Terminal command or series of Terminal commands that could be set permanently by macOS to delete Time Machine's old backups (just the right amount) to make way for the snapshot/backup it'll be doing in advance (or during the latest backup)?

Thank you.
