APACHE-2.0 License
Reliable and fast directory removal functions.
remove_dir_all
- on non-Windows this is a re-export of
std::fs::remove_dir_all

locking of directories that occurs when deleting directory trees rapidly.
remove_dir_contents
- as for remove_dir_all
but does not delete the
supplied root directory.
ensure_empty_dir
- as for remove_dir_contents
but will create the
directory if it does not exist.

fn main() {
remove_dir_all("./temp/").unwrap();
remove_dir_contents("./cache/").unwrap();
