Event TimelineComment Actions The release artifact targets have some problems with re-running, and we should really either be able to reuse the previously staged package install, or forcibly start with a clean target location. That said, the official builds are always done in a fresh/clean directory and won't encounter issues of this sort, and there won't be any potential downside from this change there. So I'm happy with this to aid with iteration in developing the release targets. |
