function Select-DbaBackupInformation {
    <#
    .SYNOPSIS
        Select a subset of backups from a dbatools backup history object
 
    .DESCRIPTION
        Select-DbaBackupInformation filters out a subset of backups from the dbatools backup history object with parameters supplied.
 
    .PARAMETER BackupHistory
        A dbatools.BackupHistory object containing backup history records
 
    .PARAMETER RestoreTime
        The point in time you want to restore to
 
    .PARAMETER IgnoreLogs
        This switch will cause Log Backups to be ignored. So will restore to the last Full or Diff backup only
 
    .PARAMETER IgnoreDiffs
        This switch will cause Differential backups to be ignored. Unless IgnoreLogs is specified, restore to point in time will still occur, just using all available log backups
 
    .PARAMETER DatabaseName
        A string array of Database Names that you want to filter to
 
    .PARAMETER ServerName
        A string array of Server Names that you want to filter
 
    .PARAMETER ContinuePoints
        The Output of Get-RestoreContinuableDatabase while provides 'Database',redo_start_lsn,'FirstRecoveryForkID' values. Used to filter backups to continue a restore on a database
        Sets IgnoreDiffs, and also filters databases to only those within the ContinuePoints object, or the ContinuePoints object AND DatabaseName if both specified
 
    .PARAMETER LastRestoreType
        The Output of Get-DbaDbRestoreHistory -last
        This is used to check the last type of backup to a database to see if a differential backup can be restored
 
    .PARAMETER EnableException
        By default, when something goes wrong we try to catch it, interpret it and give you a friendly warning message.
        This avoids overwhelming you with "sea of red" exceptions, but is inconvenient because it basically disables advanced scripting.
        Using this switch turns this "nice by default" feature off and enables you to catch exceptions with your own try/catch.

        PS C:\> $FilteredBackups = $Backups | Select-DbaBackupInformation -RestoreTime (Get-Date).AddHours(-1) -IgnoreLogs
 
        Returns all the backups in \\server1\backups$ to restore to as close prior to 1 hour ago as can be managed with only full and differential backups

        PS C:\> $Backups = Get-DbaBackupInformation -SqlInstance Server1 -Path \\server1\backups$
        PS C:\> $FilteredBackups = $Backups | Select-DbaBackupInformation -RestoreTime (Get-Date).AddHours(-1) -IgnoreDiffs
 
        Returns all the backups in \\server1\backups$ to restore to 1 hour ago using only Full and Diff backups.
