In December last year was a change introduced, that a file should not be removed before tangling (https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-orgmode/2021-05/msg00337.html). In an older bug report (https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-orgmode/2021-05/msg00337.html) the decision was to remove the file before writing. I added a variable to switch between both behaviors. Any feedback or advice is welcome.
