How do you unpack new files on top of old ones?
For new and changed files is clear..., you just copy it over. But how do
you spot and delete files that are in old release but no longer in new
release.
I assume you first remove all files from old release, before extracting
new release on top?
Please write exact set of commands you use.
I know it's just a detail, but I need to write procedure for other
developers and I want to make sure that they will remove .somefile, but
keep .hg* files when doing it (and I am not sure if this is all they need
to pay attention).

Thanks a lot for other usefull information about tagging conventions.
