Commit Message

The delta path can now be cleared from libuci, lua/uci and the cli. Only
the savedir remains in the delta path after clearing. This enables safely
committing new changes from scripts without also comitting potentially
existing uncommited user changes.

This introduces:
- the cli option '-x'.
- the lua method cur:clear_delta().
- the libuci function uci_clear_delta_path().
- a test case.

To safely commit changes from shell scripts, use:

    local tmp="$(mktemp -d)"
    uci -P "$tmp" config.section.var=val
    uci -P "$tmp" -x commit
    rm -rf "$tmp"

Hi all,

Unfortunately this patch has not received much attention yet. I would
like to get some comments on it.

Actually, I plan to use this patch to resubmit a new version of [1].
The proposed change in [1] was only rejected because there was no way
to change the uci configuration from scripts without interfering with
possible uncommitted user changes.

The commit here is my approach to allow changing the uci configuration
from scripts without interfering with possible uncommitted user
changes.

What do you think?

Kind regards,
Leonardo
