Description:
I came across this, it may apply to other files as well:

# How long to keep redacted events in unredacted form in the database. After
# this period redacted events get replaced with their redacted form in the DB.
#
# Defaults to `7d`. Set to `null` to disable.
#
#redaction_retention_period: 28d

please clarify in the doc whether disable means

  • disabling the retention (time span) of unredacted event, replacing it immediately
  • disabling the replacement of unredacted by redacted events, keeping unredacted indefinitely
