Make consistent the expectation around non-existent fragments directory #557

Description

In the first commit, I update the documentation to reflect the current behavior, highlighting that a missing fragments directory is normal for a "create" operation and caused by the "build" operation.

In the second commit, I expand the documentation to include the case where "build" is invoked and the fragments directory is missing to be consistent with an empty directory or no directory at all. I also draft a likely way to achieve this behavior. Once tests pass, this approach closes #538.

Note that this change aligns the behavior with the currently prescribed expectation.

Checklist

  • Make sure changes are covered by existing or new tests.
  • For at least one Python version, make sure local test run is green.
  • Create a file in src/towncrier/newsfragments/. Describe your
    change and include important information. Your change will be included in the public release notes.
  • Make sure all GitHub Actions checks are green (they are automatically checking all of the above).
  • Ensure docs/tutorial.rst is still up-to-date.
  • If you add new CLI arguments (or change the meaning of existing ones), make sure docs/cli.rst reflects those changes.
  • If you add new configuration options (or change the meaning of existing ones), make sure docs/configuration.rst reflects those changes.

Thanks. It looks like this was a bug.

The test docstring states that it is expected to handle it as no changes, but in fact it was failing :)

By default, the processed news fragments are removed using ``git``, which will
also remove the fragments directory if now empty.

By default, the processed news fragments are removed using ``git rm``.

I don't think that towncrier (or git) explicitly removes the empty dir.

I tested this expectation in one of my projects. For example, you can checkout /jaraco/skeleton, which currently has one fragment, and run towncrier build 0.0.0, and it will remove the newsfragmenta dir.

@adiroiban you're gonna laugh, but I think we ran into this situation as well. I think we're gonna change our process for other reasons in a way that this isn't a problem. However, just in case, would you mind cutting a release with this in the next few days? Thanks a bunch!!
