Hi,
Last night i updated my system and after that I was not able to find out snapshot option in boot options
Well, I know it's cause ...
last time before updating my system i saw that some snapshot are way older but still in my system. So I just removed all of them through this command :
update remote reset-snapper
after that I updated my system and now there are no snapshots . As it should create a snapshot after a reboot so I rebooted it twice to get a snapshot but it didn't worked
I also tried to create it manually but wasn't successful
Then I tried to update it again and there I found that the config file of the snapshot is missing !
Here is full output of the update :

Then I searched for snapper config files and I found that there is no config file in

I searched for that config file on github but wasn't able to find where it is 
So can someone give me it's link please ?
