[Feature Request] `arc delete` #89

Closed omaus closed 1 year ago

omaus commented 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Users might initiate an ARC in a folder where they also have other files and folders. If they later decide to delete the ARC, they have to remove all ARC-related files and folders by hand which might be a bit tricky the larger the root folder was before.

Describe the solution you'd like An arc delete function would aid with this. It can be easily implemented since we always know about every possible folder and file in an ARC root.

Describe alternatives you've considered Let the users still delete ARC-stuff manually.

Additional context A functionality with such consequences will be located in the Danger Zone, thus there should be a query if the action shall really be performed or not (typically, a y/n scenario).

Hey, like you stated, this functionality is actually a slippery sloap due to the dangers it presents. IMO the alternative way you described has been sufficient for now. I'll close this issue for now. Feel free to reopen if a need for this arises in the user community.
