Help - my disk is full! (of bin.v2 stuff)
I note with surprise (and alarm) that my Boost-stuff disk partition is nearly full! Closer inspection reveals that I have a bin.v2 folder of over 50 GB. Obviously, I need to delete something. What are the implications of deleting things? What is the best option? Should I simply delete the whole folder bin.v2 (I have, in desperation, gone nuclear some time ago) or just bin/v2/libs or ? Expert advice welcome. Thanks Paul --- Paul A. Bristow Prizet Farmhouse Kendal UK LA8 8AB +44 (0) 1539 561830

That's what I do. Anything you actually need will be rebuilt on demand.
or just bin/v2/libs

Deleting bin.v2 is ok, but I usually delete bin.v2/libs as this is where the actual build artifacts are stored. The rest is the cached stuff that doesn't take much space and which typically there's no reason to re-generate.

I wipe out bin.v2 quite frequently. In fact, I wipe out all non-versioned files every few days when start-over the whole super-project [1] switching between master and develop for testing GIL or Geometry. This deletes bin.v2 etc. too.
