All,
Running "fossil clean -x -v" appears to follow symlinks, which
means it will go delete data outside of your repository path --
recursively.
Example:
$ mkdir /tmp/a
$ touch /tmp/a/one
$ touch /tmp/a/two
$ touch /tmp/a/three
$ ln -s /tmp/a .
$ fossil clean -x -v
Removed unmanaged file: a/one
Removed unmanaged file: a/three
Removed unmanaged file: a/two
Could not remove directory: a
$
Now imagine that symlink went to "/etc" or "/home" or "/"... :-(
Thanks,
Roy Keene
