<p>When WordPress is updated, it re-installs wp-config-sample.php, readme files, and license files even though you may have deleted them before. This plugin automatically removes these files when WordPress is manually or automatically updated. It also removes these files when activating the plugin for the first time. Removing these files is not mandatory, but you may want to if you don’t want them to expose your WordPress version or if you just like to keep things neat and clean.</p>
<p>Files that are removed:</p>
<ul>
<li>License files, both default and localized</li>
<li>Readme files, both default and localized</li>
<li>wp-config-sample.php</li>
<li>wp-admin/install.php</li>
</ul>
<p><strong><em>You may not want to install this plugin if you’re using a plugin or service to scans your site to verify checksums on the core files. When the removed files are missing it might result in warnings.</em></strong></p>
<h3>Manual installation</h3>
<ol>
<li>Upload the <code>wp-core-update-cleaner</code> directory to the <code>/wp-content/plugins/</code> directory.</li>
<li>Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.</li>
</ol>

<p>Description: Hook into plugin and core upgrader to support SVN driven sites. Now you can freely use the WordPress auto upgrade features without worrying about the Subversion impact. Just upgrade in WordPress and then commit the changes in SVN.</p>
<p>Additionally, this plugin displays the current SVN version in the footer of your admin panel and uses the SVN version to append to your CSS and Javascript embeds so that every time you update from SVN, your media files are cleared form cache.</p>
<p>Requires that your system permissions allow shell_exec() to execute svn commands.</p>
<p>Donate – if this is generating enough revenue to support our time it makes all the difference in the world<br />

<h4>To Do</h4>
<ul>
<li>Account for SVN externals</li>
<li>Test to ensure the plugin is compatible with your server (that you can run exec svn commands)</li>
<li>Build an auto commit option? Not sure if this is a good idea.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Documentation</h3>
<p>It’s pretty straight forward. When you auto upgrade a plugin or the core, this plugin automatically svn adds and removes files appropriately. That way you can keep your entire WordPress install in SVN.</p>
