Follow-up Comment #8, bug #20865 (project findutils):

What James wrote in the NEWS sounds good to me:

<pre>
 Using both -delete and -prune without explicitly
 using -depth is now an error.  Traditionally,
 -delete has always turned -depth on anyway, so
 this is not a functional change.  However, using
 -depth (implicitly or explicitly) makes -prune a
 no-op.  This change is intended to avoid nasty
 surprises for people who test with "-print" and
 then change it to "-delete" when they are happy.
</pre>

Great work!
