Just checking: if the build fails, the logs aren't removed, right?
That's what you seem to be saying above, and that seems to be what the
script does if I'm reading it correctly, but given that I'm not sure I
understand your last paragraph.

Certainly I think it would be bad if the logs were deleted if the
build fails, but I don't mind if they're deleted if the build
succeeds.
