timppu: You use the "clean" command to remove old obsolete files from your local GOG files, files that don't exist anymore on the GOG servers (ie. are not in your updated manifest file anymore).
Actually it doesn't remove the obsolete files outright, but moves them into a separate !oprhaned-directory, which you can later check and delete all the files in it, if you want.
Oh I see, thank you for the info. Actually it doesn't remove the obsolete files outright, but moves them into a separate !oprhaned-directory, which you can later check and delete all the files in it, if you want.
The README.md files only mentioned a "clean" command in the TODO list, so I just ignored it.
I see that the program's -h parameter lists it correctly, instead.
Btw lol, the clean command reported 581Gb of orphaned data (just the games).. I created a backup recently, so I wasted a bunch of time and space for nothing -_-'
P.s: I'd like to keep the non-Scumvm installers too, is there a list somewhere?
EDIT: Magog can do it, but I don't know which versions are still the DOS ones..
Are custom subfolders safe in the "!oprhaned" dir?
