👋 hi bestie, welcome to SVK::Command::Delete(3)

okay so real talk — this page lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of your man pages, and it's all about the delete command: how you yeet a versioned item out of your repo. 💅 Whether you're nuking a file you regret or a whole directory that's giving expired-milk energy, this is your girl.

✨ NAME ✨

SVK::Command::Delete — Remove versioned item

like. it removes things. versioned things. that's the whole vibe. 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

delete [PATH...]
delete [DEPOTPATH...]

so you can hit it with plain local paths or depot paths — both are valid, both slay, pick your fighter. 🦋

💖 OPTIONS 💖

  • -K, --keep-local — do not remove the local file. the repo forgets it exists, but your working copy keeps the goods. bestie behaviour fr fr. 🙈
  • -m, --message MESSAGE — specify commit message MESSAGE. tell the timeline what you did and why. no cryptic one-worders, ok? 😭
  • -F, --file FILENAME — read commit message from FILENAME. same energy as -m but your message lives in a file. very put-together of you. 💜
  • --template — use the specified message as the template to edit. starts you off with something and lets you zhuzh it up. ✨
  • --encoding ENC — treat the -m/-F value as being in charset encoding ENC. for when your commit message is speaking a whole other language. 🌈
  • -P, --patch NAME — instead of commit, save this change as a patch. no committing today, just saving the receipts. 🧚
  • -S, --sign — sign this change. put your signature on it, main character. 👑
  • -C, --check-only — try operation but make no changes. a dress rehearsal, a vibe check, a look but don't touch. 💀
  • --direct — commit directly even if the path is mirrored. skipping the whole mirror song and dance. 🔥
  • --force — delete the file/directory even if modified. careful, bestie — this one does NOT care about your uncommitted changes, it will absolutely delete modified stuff. ⚠️
