Smarter /tmp storage

Open danthem opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

By default this script stores some temporary data in /tmp , this is not always ideal and should be changed or at least customizable. I'm thinking about storing the files in $dst instead but need to make sure to ignore them when script checks if any data found.

A bonus feature would be to keep the temporary files and if they're detected, query user if they want to use the same roots or re-generate, but this also requires some kind of tracking of depth level.

(this issue was inspired by @d0m1n1qu3 who made a fork due to /tmp running out of space)

I use tmpfs .... if only the problem is losing the temporary work data when restarting not is an problem for me. Only the user need an warning text about saving temporary data files.
