clean-tree¶
- Purpose:
Remove unwanted files from working tree.
- Usage:
brz clean-tree
- Options:
- --detritus
Delete conflict files, merge and revert backups, and failed selftest dirs.
- -d ARG, --directory=ARG
Branch to operate on, instead of working directory.
- --dry-run
Show files to delete instead of deleting them.
- --force
Do not prompt before deleting.
- -h, --help
Show help message.
- --ignored
Delete all ignored files.
- -q, --quiet
Only display errors and warnings.
- --unknown
Delete files unknown to brz (default).
- --usage

- -v, --verbose

- Description:
By default, only unknown files, not ignored files, are deleted. Versioned files are never deleted.
Another class is ‘detritus’, which includes files emitted by brz during normal operations and selftests. (The value of these files decreases with time.)
If no options are specified, unknown files are deleted. Otherwise, option flags are respected, and may be combined.
To check what clean-tree will do, use –dry-run.
