dependency:unpack-dependencies doesnt seem to delete old directories before unzipping

[Richard Chamberlain <ri...@caplin.com>]

Hi,

 

I've been using dependency:unpack-dependencies to copy a few products
(zipped, with start scripts etc) onto a runtime environment. 

 

However no matter which arguments i seem to supply, it doesn't seem to
delete the old artefact before unzipping the new one.

 

I removed a file from the zip (start2.sh) and although
unpack-dependencies got the latest version without the file, when it
unzipped the file was still there from the previous revision of the
snapshot.

 

Is there a way to delete old dirs before unzipping a new artefact?

 

Thanks,

 

Rich

I wouldn't expect it to.  (How would it know what to delete?)  The
'clean' plugin would have that role during a build.

Depending on what runtime environment this is, the Cargo project might
have something to help.
