how can I stop Back In Time from using up all my inodes?

how can I stop Back In Time from using up all my inodes?

I started using Back In Time about a month ago and have it set to back up my "work" folder hourly. All went fine, until today when (after quite a bit of WTF on my part) I found that it had eaten up all my inodes. I had BIT set to use up to 2GB of space and keep backups for a year. It still had plenty of space but it had eaten up all the inodes on that partition.
I don't see any options in BIT's configuration that are related to inodes. How should I prevent this from happening in the future?
