Pipeline moves/removes files that are not generated by pinta #15

Closed ymaan4 closed 3 years ago

ymaan4 commented 3 years ago

The --retain-aux option seems to filter and move files on the basis of extension. This results in moving the files that are actually not created by pinta, which is not desirable. I have noticed this happening with *.info files, might also be true for other types. Extrapolating from this, the absence of --retain-aux will imply that pinta could potentially delete files that are not its intermediate products but rather created by someone else, which could be very damaging.

This was done to clean up the large number of auxiliary output files which are created during the process. I will fine-tune this to ensure that only files created by pinta or its subprocesses are (re)moved.

Tested and it works.
