Each directory to be kept in a release should have a .Sanitize file in
cvs. See devo/.Sanitize for a more or less self describing template.
-The default action is to remove all files and directories not
-explicitly listed in the .Sanitize file as being "Things-to-keep:".
+All files should be listed in "Things-to-keep:" or "Things-to-lose:"
+(or dealt with via keep_these_too and lose_these_too, see below). If
+a file is not listed, it is removed, but a warning is printed.
Directories that are kept will have Sanitize called on their own
.Sanitize files.
-For other than default action, there are three hooks.
-
The "Do-first:" section of .Sanitize should be a shell script
fragment. It will be sourced by the Sanitize shell script after
verifying that the .Sanitize file looks reasonable but before taking
any other action. The arguments to Sanitize are passed to this
fragment so that you can take conditional action. For an example of
-it's use, see devo/gcc/config/.Sanitize.
+its use, see devo/gcc/config/.Sanitize.
If the "Do-first:" section sets the local shell variable
"keep_these_too", the files and/or directories listed there will be
-kept in addition to any files listed in "Things-to-keep:". For an

The "Do-last:" section of .Sanitize should be a shell script fragment.
It will be sourced by Sanitize after all other action is taken for
