What I meant is that the documentation seems to imply (at least to me)
that the snippet above would match all bin and obj directories
underneath the ${folder} base directory and delete them, even if they
are not empty. But as you say, they are not deleted because they are not
empty. I was just trying to point out a potential point of confusion for
users in the documentation.
