Thanks for the ideas @eflyjason @zhuyifei1999
I'm agree with the -keep_old parameter..
BTW I wanna ask, is actually latest is just a pointer to a dated revision (f.ex 20171220) ? I've found that every files in the latest revision have -rss.xml file that contains metadata that links the file to a dated revision. I think we can use that.
So by using that, I think the implementation will be:
File that downloaded with latest revision will be renamed into their "real" date revision f.ex idwiki-latest-abstract.xml -> idwiki-20171103-abstract.xml based on their -rss.xml file.
Then do check if there's a file with the same name, if the file exist, the script will not download the dump again, vice versa.
Then if -keep_old is False, we delete all previous dumps with the same name
