Handling removed files

Often in any project, files get removed or renamed. Is it true that when a file is removed from SOS each person on the project must locally remove that file from their machine? It would be nice if SOS had the ability to remove these files from the local machines when they 'get latest'. Maybe this is possible but I haven't figured out how to do it.

suggestions?

SOS is unable to delete files in the working directory if they have been renamed or deleted from the database. We do a have a feature request logged for this functionality -- I'll add your "vote."

One thing that can make it easier to identify "orphaned" files is to do a project diff with SG Diff/Merge.
