Is it safe to delete folders under buildtrees after successful build?

Yep, totally fine.

Note that聽the source code is contained here, so deleting it will remove your ability to聽source-level-debug into libraries (the PDBs should still be available for non-source debugging though).

I think it's totally safe, I often delete it to free disk room.
