HowTo: Apply and remove state change files

[ChrissW-R1]

Is there a possibility to apply the OSC files and remove them after a successful import?

If I use the daemons to download and apply all changes, the required disk space will rapidly increasing!

Ok, but in my opinion this could be a very useful feature for the future...

Correction: you should take a look at fetch_osc_and_apply.sh. I think it does exactly what you plan to do.

Nice, but if I understand the code correctly, this script doesn't support the meta=attic option, right? Only meta=yes or no meta.

[mmd-osm]

Right. The script hasn't been updated in a while and doesn't cover yet attic mode. However there's no technical reason to keep it that way. If you like you can provide a pull request to include attic support for this script. You could use the logic in apply_osc_to_db.sh as a template.

Ok, I added this function to the script.
