release v1. copy file to the same folder (e.g for backup) doesn't work

Closed this issue · 2 comments

Copy-pasting files between locations work.
But it doesn't propose renaming/renames automagically when pasting in the same location

Darn, that's an oversight. Thanks for pointing it out!

The previous version just duplicated/renamed the files in the same location and didn't offer a way to move them. I changed the implementation to allow you to copy files between folders, and I removed the renaming popup to make the app behave more similarly to file browsers on other operating systems.

I'll have to add a workaround for this for the next version :)

Perhaps a check for if the new/old locations are the same, and then giving a rename prompt if they are 🤔

Fixed with adding .bak extension.
Messing with sequential numbering seemed a bit overkill. And adding random sequences creates mess.
Most obvious scenario where one copy-pastes file in the same place would be a backup. Hence .bak )
