| Summary | 0000676: when copying a directory to its own soft-link, all files deleted | ||||
| Description | I tried to copy a directory with SVN repository (if it matters) Accidentally, the target dir was a symlink to the source dir. when i copied the files, doublecmd asked me - copy into existing directories (I answered yes to all) - copy into existing files (I answered yes to all) it then said: "cannot open existing file: /xxx/yyy/zzz (retry / skip / skip all / abort) both when i chose skip or retry, the SOURCE file was deleted I think this kind of errors are easy to prevent: If the target file exist, either - check if the file is a symlink, or - remove (delete) the target before copying the source! - or better: 1) copy into a temp name, 2) and then delete the target after it's finish, 3) and then rename destination as target, | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | (be sure to backup everythiong before !!) 1) create a symlink to an existing directory (with subdirectories and files) 2) in doublecmd go into the original dir 3) select all items inside (ctrl+a) 4) in the other panel, go into the symlink 5) copy all files & folders into the symlink (F5) | ||||
| Additional Information | ok, of course i know it's stupid to copy files into their own symlink, but i didn't notice that it was a symlink (on someone else's computer) Errors like this do happen sometimes, and it could happen to others. (Luckily, I just made a backup of the source before the copy - but if someone don't do backup - they're screwed) | ||||
