When Django was maintained with SVN, `collectstatic` could copy the `.svn`
directory inside each directory (e.g. when testing
`use_default_ignore_patterns=False`). Removing these directories was a
problem on Windows. [d18d37ce] introduced `rmtree_errorhandler` to solve
that problem.
Since we've moved to git, there's a single `.git` directory at the root of
the repository and we don't need that anymore.
[a9a0f0b0] also used `rmtree_errorhandler` in `startproject`/`startapp`.
It's a large commit. I couldn't find anything about `rmtree_errorhandler`
in the ticket, in the code or in the tests. I assume it was included for
extra safety.
