There was a problem hiding this comment.
This is a "dangerous" command, it removes everything including draft files and IDE metadata.
I'd suggest mark it as optional, and add a warning.
Also AFAIK the only problematic area is ./test so maybe just:
git clean -xdf ./test/

Add a line to the backporting guide for
git clean. Sometimes not all of the build artifacts from more recent versions have been cleaned up. Make sure folks don't get tripped up by this.Checklist
