A simple command line tool for sanitizing a directory

Usage: sanitize [OPTIONS] [path]

Arguments:
  [path]  the directory to sanitize

Options:
  -f, --file <file>  the entries to keep, one per line
                     if not passed, will use stdin
                     format is the same as .*ignore files
  -n, --dry-run      don't actually delete anything
  -y, --yes          don't ask for confirmation (dangerous, but very, very useful)
      --unsafe       allow unsafe operation (sanitize $HOME)
  -v, --verbose...   increase verbosity (can be used multiple times)
  -h, --help         Print help
  -V, --version      Print version
