Some things you do have to do by hand.  Generally, if sitecopy does the 
deletions first every time, this problem shouldn't arise.  I have version 
0.15.0, available in my distro's packages.  It may be different.  (Usually, 
for any bug reports, you must have the latest version installed.  The latest 
is 0.15.1.)

I run sitecopy from a cron job, and I rarely have a problem.  There was 
something equally unusual the other day, but it was only a one-off, and arose 
from my fiddling, then not running catchup.  Sitecopy can't be blamed for 
that.
