os.remove is not documented in wiki

[KyrietS]

What seems to be the problem?
os.remove is missing in wiki but it's implemented: https://github.com/premake/premake-core/blob/master/src/base/os.lua#L479

What did you expect to happen?
Add it to wiki because it is the only non-source-code documentation of Premake5 at this moment. Unfortunately contributors can't make Pull Requests to wiki pages.

Anything else we should know?
os.matchfiles seems to be very similar in use so you can just copy&paste it with some minor changes. Here: https://github.com/premake/premake-core/wiki/os.matchfiles

Interesting. I used to be able to edit the wiki freely, now I cannot. I wonder what has changed

I wonder what has changed

A couple of clowns were editing it talking trash about each other, eventually leaving the footer with a link to CMake. The option was leave the wiki open to these kinds of problems, or lock it down and move towards having the docs in the repo instead. The docs weren't being updated that often anyway, so we opted to lock it down. It's unfortunate that GitHub only has two options here, any kind of approval system would be significantly better.

Are there any decisions made towards having the docs in the repo? There are many great frameworks for docs that work with GitHub static pages pretty well, eg.

• MkDocs: https://www.mkdocs.org/
• Docsify: https://docsify.js.org/
• etc.

@KyrietS No decisions made, but high on the priority list so any assistance would be very much appreciated! I've opened #1547 to get the documentation sorted.

Fixed, see os.remove.
