No way to clean up broken branches

[Alexander Taler]

If bzr-eclipse fails half way through branching, it can leave folders on the disk, which prevent the user from trying the operation again.

Similarly, if I have checked out a Bazaar branch which contains multiple projects (e.g. bzr-eclipse) then I can delete all of the projects in the Project Explorer, but I can't delete the entire branch.

Perhaps the Project Creation Wizard should offer a flag to remove conflicting directories or projects.

Regarding deleting multiple projects in a single branch, I think we can handle that in BazaarMoveDeleteHook and remove the branch when there is no project left inside. See unimplemented deleteProject method

I have created https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1186398 for the changes in BazaarMoveDeleteHook and I will take care of them. It would be great if you could improve new project wizard to handle broken checkouts/existing folders as describe in this report and in https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1181969.

I have pushed a fix to trunk which means the project wizard will clean up if there's a failure during checkout or branch.

I think we should leave any new options on the wizard to 1.3, so I'm pushing the milestone on this bug.
