Comment (by jipmoors):
@airathalitov I have not separated the ''deletion of old files'' from the
flow, as it would require separating more logic from bulk and non-bulk
installs. This is something I wanted to reduce for this first improvement.
== Disk usage
Though this point has me realizing that this new method of walking through
the flow has a potential disk-space issue, which was not as prominent
before.
As all downloads and unzips are taking place beforehand, the space
requires has increased to the total amount of all plugins being upgraded.
Before this was only the size of the biggest plugin.
As a site running at near full disk is at risk from being unavailable for
many other reasons, I don't think it should be an instant blocker. This
concern should be taken into account in determining if it's acceptable for
merge.
