Description (last modified by jbirch)

When I modified a package and restored it, it destroyed everything in my repository other than what was in the package. This is because the package modification utility adds DeleteResoure calls to all resources (including folders) in the output package when it saves. This is undesirable behaviour in many cases.

When creating the package there is a checkbox to not delete folders. If the folders are deleted when this checkbox is not checked, its a bug.

It would also be possible to suppress the delete when applying the package, but that would require that the manifest file is extracted, altered and re-inserted.

I thought I was going nuts, because the checkbox is actually TO delete folders, and the default is not to delete.

But I remember I had been playing around with modifying the package. The package modifier appears to throw in the DeleteResource operations by default.

I'm going to update the ticket title and description to match.
