What exactly do each of these commands achieve? I'm confused. rmdir is for removing empty directories. But _site is not empty by default. And what are the /s and /q endings?

Thanks.

But I am still curious: why use rmdir? _site contains a lot of subdirectories. So unless you removed all of those preemptively I don't see why you wouldn't use deltree or something more recursive.
