Mix does not delete old versioned files when a new one is generated

• Laravel Mix Version: 0.11.4
• Node Version: v6.10.0
• NPM Version: 3.10.10
• OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64x

Description:

When I’m using the version() function, it doesn’t matter if I’m running in production mode or not, the old versioned files are not been deleted (BTW this is not a Laravel project)

Steps To Reproduce:

Put this setting in the webpack.mix.js

@warrio4 Things has changed since my comment. I would suggest to use clean-webpack-plugin

• Install clean-webpack-plugin

npm i clean-webpack-plugin --save-dev

• Update your webpack-mix.js

const mix = require('laravel-mix');
const CleanWebpackPlugin = require('clean-webpack-plugin');
// Your mix setup may goes here
// mix.js(....)

// Add this to very bottom of your webpack-mix.js
mix.webpackConfig({
  plugins: [
    new CleanWebpackPlugin(['./public/js', './public/css', './public/fonts'])
  ]
});

This plugin play nice even in watch mode.

@boyd91 0.11.4 is the most stable at the moment.
