Hello,
No, but we don't *want* the "rmdir for directories" part!
that is what I meant. We call unlink because we want unlink to _fail_ on
directories while it deletes file. I forgot about the original
discussion but Johannes refreshed my memory. If a file in our history
becomes a directory we want to get it out of our way. And we want to do
that by call unlink.
