Option to delete file even if link resolves, but no longer in install config

I have my configuration in a git repository, probably as others do. The files I am linking aren't going to be missing unless I delete them, however is there a way to configure yaml installation file to remove a link if it is no longer configured to handle a link?

For instance if I link fileN to ~/my.config, but then I decide I don't want that file linked anymore, but I still want it in my repository, I would think I could comment it out or remove from my configuration and it would remove the link. It seems I need to delete the file to have it unlinked.

This may be a misunderstanding, or misconfiguration, but I thought there might be a way to handle this within framework.

Thanks!
