Hi,

Currently, eeschema keeps information of deleted hierarchical sheets 
into their bound .sch file.

In the project I have now, there were 5 hierarchical sheets with the 
same file. After deleting 2 of these hieralchical sheets, their 
information (a line for every component) remains in the common .sch file.

Only if I create a 6th sheet, the 2 deleted sheets disappear from the 
.sch file.

Also, if I create a hieralchical sheet with only one instance and the 
delete the whole sheet, the .sch file still remains in the project folder.

This behaviour has no impact in the circuit, the layout or the netlist.
Anyway, I think the less garbage, the better.

Just a tip for the new eeschema file format environment.

Regards,
Pedro.
