[FIXED] Jenkins: remove old builds with command line

Issue

I delete old jenkins builds with rm where job is hosted:

my_job/builds/$ rm -rf [1-9]*

These old builds are still visible in job page. How to remove them with command line?
(without the delete button in each build user interface)

Solution

It looks like this has been added to the CLI, or is at least being worked on: http://jenkins.361315.n4.nabble.com/How-to-purge-old-builds-td385290.html

Syntax would be something like this: java -jar jenkins-cli.jar -s http://my.jenkins.host delete-builds myproject '1-7499' --username $user --password $password
