jekyll clean doesn't understand --config

[lboecker]

I'm using 3.0.0.pre.beta5

jekyll clean -s src -d build doesn't work either.

---

config.yml is at the root of the source tree; the commands are executed from the root as well.

By the way: Is clean supposed to remove stuff listed in keep_files?

I don't know if it is but I'd be happy to look into it this week since I would like to integrate the clean command into my build setup. Maybe @parkr can provide some input?

Nope.

It should definitely take the build commands. There's a method on Jekyll::Command for that, I think.

[lboecker]

IIRC (big if) I got the clean command to work one way or another and it removed everything, but please don't take my word for it.

I'm not a ruby guy, but I looked at the source and it looks like it's doing what it's supposed to be doing (i.e., calling configuration_from_options like the other commands). I guess calling configuration_from_options isn't good enough and you'd have to (re-)add them using add_build_options or something?

[lboecker]

Did anybody have a chance to look into this? It would be really nice to get this into 3.0 and it shouldn't be too hard to fix.

[parkr]

Yeah check out command.rb. There's a method in there that should be called by the clean command. Use the build or serve commands as an example.
