ShipIt: How to delete path mappings?

[itsdouges]

Hey mate — what's the best way to remove path mappings from a shipit sync?

E.g. say I have this config:

  getPathMappings() {
    return new Map([
      ["packages/foo", "packages/foo"],
      ["packages/bar", "packages/bar"],
    ]);
  },

Let's say I'm deleting foo. I've done it in two commits, both got errors:

1. Delete the folders, don't update config: errors with Directory mapping uses non-existent root: foo
2. Delete the foo config: errors with Error: ❌ Repository is out of SYNC!

🤔 Any ideas how to resolve? I can imagine I can surgically make the changes in the dest repo and then update the adiera id. But I'd hope this can be done in an automated fashion instead.

As a side it would be great to document some workflows for adding new paths and any gotchas, e.g:

• adding a new path that is relatively old
• adding a new path in the same commit
• deleting paths
• renaming paths (this exists in the readme today)
