Proposed Changes
When force fetching Git dependencies, we need to be able to overwrite read-only files in the destination, since Git repos may contain read-only pack and index files in
.git/
.To do so, this PR introduces flag
clobber_files
forutils.copy_tree()
which will completely clobber existing files in thedestination by setting a custom
copy_function
forshutil.copytree()
which deletes existing destination files before copying them withshutil.copy2()
.With this change,
utils.copy_tree()
withclobber_files=True
behaves pretty much identically to distutils'copy_tree()
which was used in previous versions of Kapitan.TODO
