Description
This is a follow-up on #21604 (comment 10-12)
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
I think it would be best if this were implemented as an entirely new command--
clean_stale
, say. Or it could be rolled into the existingclean
command. It has a different purpose, but could be done as options to theclean
command. #21508 already mentions making theclean
command work properly. I've usually found that the built-insetup.py clean
command is not always as useful as one would like, so it might be worth extending anyways.
