inDir deletes contents of directory before generation

[scalvert]

Currently, the inDir method will delete the contents of the specified directory prior to the generator running.

Can we add a flag to skip this defaulting to preserving the current behavior for backwards compatibility?

deleteDirContents = true

I assume we'd thread this through to https://github.com/yeoman/yeoman-test/blob/master/lib/index.js#L75

Which version didn’t delete?
I think cd is what you are looking for.

Sorry, my description wasn't good. I don't want it to delete the contents. I'm using fixturify-project to scaffold out a specific project structure, which I want to then run the generator against. So, I want to skip deleting directory contents. Probably skipCleanup is a better param name.

You should use cd method instead.

Update: you didn’t mean there was a behavior change.

The feature request is already implemented.

Ugg you're right. I swear I tried this first. Let me try again!
