    Description

      Problem

      Presently Bamboo allows cleaning of directory after each succesfull build. It will be a great idea to clean before builds as well. This has the added advantage of providing the following:

      * debugging - as generated files could be easily inspected without resorting to artifacts
      * ensuring behaviour for aborted builds
      * takes care of possible nasty linking interference cases when a new build produces less files or a different set of objects than the previous one
      * generally when certain tools get confused about already existing files (or folders with the same name, etc.)
      

      Solution

      Use "Clean working directory task" to clean working directory in a Job. If this task is a first task in a Job it will be run before artifact dependencies are downloaded.
