Where would the metadata for the local_file resource be stored? How would Terraform find files it once created and must now delete?

Same famous problem for any kind of make-based build system, removing targets usually leave old files in your build directory. IIRC Bazel can avoid it but don’t know how, either it must keep a list of old files or compare the entirety of build directory to the build-graph.
