Intended behaviour of FTP

[nicokroe]

When I add a directory to <add_src> in the ftp template, conpot removes every file from data.tar. This usually leads to an exception because conpot tries to chown these files although they are not available anymore (This can be mitigated by removing the file from the template). Is it intended that the files are removed? If so, why? I looked through the source and wasn't able to make out why that happens. Thank you in advance!
