Re: Deleting filesets with directories
On that note, I'm trying to delete all the CVS subdirs from a directory
structure. My task looks like:
<delete defaultexcludes="no" includeemptydirs="true" verbose="true">
<fileset dir="config" includes="**/CVS/"/>
</delete>
but it's not doing anything useful at all. I have this sinking suspician that
the problem is staring me in the face and I'm just being blind...

Hello Tara,
I think your fileset needs to look like this:
<fileset dir="config" includes="**/CVS/**"/>
