rmRf silently failing on readonly file in windows #15

I was using it on Macs fine for awhile and today on windows, I noticed the it was silently failing. I added some tracing and noticed it was failing on fs.unlink. I wrote a separate script with node shelljs and it worked. The difference is they best effort try to chmod on unlink failure.

rm -rf _install remove:_install remove:_install\working remove:_install\working\defId remove:_install\working\defId\repo remove:_install\working\defId\repo.git remove:_install\working\defId\repo.git\objects remove:_install\working\defId\repo.git\objects\02 isFile:true unlink! { [Error: EPERM, operation not permitted 'C:\Users\bryanmac\Projects\xxxx\host_install\working\defId\repo .git\objects\02\37597b848a1890bb30ba0ff4102f8107cafdcb'] errno: 50, code: 'EPERM', path: 'C:\Users\bryanmac\Projects\xxxx\host_install\working\defId\repo.git\objects\02\37 597b848a1890bb30ba0ff4102f8107cafdcb', syscall: 'unlink' }
