Public bug reported:
Steps needed to reproduce the bug:
Select a file in GNOME Do, use action "Move to" (from Files and Folders plugin)
to move it to a folder where a file with the same name already exists.
Observed result:
The file is moved, the old file in the folder is lost.
Expected behaviour:
The existing file in the folder isn't overwritten. Instead, one of the
following happens:
- GNOME Do asks the user what he wants to do, like Nautilus does (overwrite or
cancel the move),
- GNOME Do doesn't move the file and warns the user about it,
- GNOME Do moves the file while slightly renaming it in order to avoid the name
conflict, maybe also warning the user.
I'm not sure which one is best. Maybe there are still other options, but those
are the most obvious ones.
