The following suboperations may be specified:
- `--print-roots`
- `--print-roots`
This operation prints on standard output the set of roots used by
the garbage collector.

- `--print-live`
- `--print-live`
This operation prints on standard output the set of “live” store
paths, which are all the store paths reachable from the roots. Live
paths should never be deleted, since that would break consistency —
it would become possible that applications are installed that
reference things that are no longer present in the store.

- `--print-dead`

This operation prints out on standard output the set of “dead” store
paths, which is just the opposite of the set of live paths: any path
in the store that is not live (with respect to the roots) is dead.

By default, all unreachable paths are deleted. The following options
control what gets deleted and in what order:
- `--max-freed` *bytes*
- `--max-freed` *bytes*
Keep deleting paths until at least *bytes* bytes have been deleted,
then stop. The argument *bytes* can be followed by the
multiplicative suffix `K`, `M`, `G` or `T`, denoting KiB, MiB, GiB
or TiB units.

The behaviour of the collector is also influenced by the
`keep-outputs` and `keep-derivations` settings in the Nix
