Is there a good way of doing this automatically? Do you have any other suggestions for how to keep a log of done tasks while removing the cruft left over from the current list?Check out the Archiving section in the org info manual. It does exactly what you want.
Thanks, this is very useful. Although it doesn't work with checkboxes as individual items to option. Can it be made to work with checkboxes, or is there an easy way to convert checkboxes to TODO items?
I've tried C-u C-c C-c C-x C-x C-c * and then using search/replace to add "TODO "but that unfortunately eliminates any previous hierarchy in the checkboxes. Is there a better way?
