Sure, I can make it conditional. --nate On Jun 18, 2011, at 12:19, Assaf Gordon <gordon@cshl.edu> wrote:

Hi,

Sorry for complaining or sounding ungrateful, but before you push the new "Delete and remove datasets from disk" to galaxy-dist, can you make it optional (with enable/disable in universe_wsgi.ini) ? Or at the very least, add a big warning and a confirmation message box before actually deleting the datasets ?

This feature is going to be a support problem - users won't easily tell the difference between "delete" and "delete and remove" (trust me, they won't, even though for you it's the most obvious difference in the world) - then they'll come asking to somehow restore those files (since I guess you don't actually delete them immediately from the disk, right) ?

That is, if users actually delete histories, which I still think they rarely do.
