This is also an issue in Ibex; I know there are related bugs but this one is labeled especifically SSHFS. The problem is as explained above that on sshfs you cannot rename a file "A.txt" to "A.txt~" if "A.txt~" already exists. Even if the target filesystem can. To me this is not gedit specific - all similar operations give the same error: a...@arno-laptop:~/jobbpc/var/www/dir$ mv stats.php stats.php~ mv: cannot move `stats.php' to `stats.php~': Operation not permitted ...while it works just fine if you mount with the rename workaround option to sshfs, like mszeredi says above: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/36091/comments/15 What worries me is that sshfs isn't able to do this kind of renaming even when the target filesystem is ext3. On my system it's all linux, and I mount the remote ext3 system on a local ext3 tree via sshfs. OK maybe the tree isnt ext3 but the filesystems are. Then from a user standpoint I was puzzled that I couldn't do normal ext3 operations.
