[Geoserver-devel] Wanted: An empty data directory

[Mike P. <mi...@op...>]

Does there exist a way to generate (or does someone already have) a blank data directory that contains nothing, no styles, stores, layers, etc?  When working on projects, I often find myself taking an existing data dir and painstakingly removing all the content, but I feel like that's not the best way to accomplish this sort of thing (and I fear it could possibly lead to data dir corruption).  And now that the data directory structure seems a bit more complex (in 2.0, I mean) I think it would be helpful to have access to one that contains nothing to begin with.

Any suggestions on this?


Thanks,
