Add Drop Confirmation to Rake Tasks

Reported by blaines | August 24th, 2009 @ 07:53 AM

db:schema:load just killed all the rows in my db.

-Solution-

All rake tasks should confirm deletions, drops, and etc...
A -f option could bypass confirmations.
Example:
rm README
rm: remove regular file README'?

    Your README example is flawed. Your rm is aliased to rm -i.

    betelgeuse@pena ~/test $ rm -i foo.txt
    rm: remove regular file foo.txt'? y
    betelgeuse@pena ~/test $ touch foo.txt
    betelgeuse@pena ~/test $ rm foo.txt
    betelgeuse@pena ~/test $ type rm
    rm is hashed (/bin/rm)</code>
    </pre>
    Tradionally unix utilities assume you know what you are doing.
