Hi Sebastian,
I see now. It looks like org-publish-attachment uses the `copy-file'
function to copy files to the publish directory. We just need to set an
option argument to copy-file to tell it how to deal with overwriting.
,----[from copy-file documentation]
| The optional third argument OK-IF-ALREADY-EXISTS specifies what to do
| if file NEWNAME already exists. If OK-IF-ALREADY-EXISTS is nil, we
| signal a `file-already-exists' error without overwriting. If
| OK-IF-ALREADY-EXISTS is a number, we request confirmation from the user
| about overwriting; this is what happens in interactive use with M-x.
| Any other value for OK-IF-ALREADY-EXISTS means to overwrite the
| existing file.
`----
This file is currently set to nil, we should probably set it to t so it
always overwrites files. Does that sound like the best option?
The attached minimal patch set this option to t.
