Detect removed files or allowing for clean builds
Currently, it appears UET will not clean up files that were previously in the folder structure but are no longer there. This can be a problem as those removed files will be attempted to be built with.
Currently, I have to go through my intermediates and make the necessary changes to remove the files, and that can be a hassle.
It would be nice if a folder structure comparison operation could be done or maybe an option just to do a clean build. I'd really appreciate that!
Which files are you seeing still remain? When UET effectively runs git checkout as part of a build on GitLab, it will clean out files that should not exist (such as files underneath Source).
When I use the plugin build functionality, I have found artifacts of files being included even if they are deleted in the source directory.
