doctr deploy --force should basically never be used. It forces doctr to run locally, whereas it normally only runs in Travis. It's only useful for development. We should probably hide the flag. doctr deploy stashes your dirty changes. It should unstash them, but maybe that failed. You can try running |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
How about just not mentioning --force at all and also hiding it from the --help output.

What does this PR implement?
It warns about running
doctr deploywith the--forceflag and dirty files.I made the mistake of doing this, and this warning would have prevented my mistake. I am submitting this PR to ask a question: how do I recover those dirty files untracked by Git? Or are they gone forever?
