I get this error after Thunar has copied xx% of the file and can't write
the rest of it.
Ah, you mean, Thunar should first check whether enough space is
available? Well, even if you ignore the numerous race conditions that
would arise here, you'd still be unable to reliably detect whether or
not enough space is available (i.e. different block sizes, available
inodes, user/group quotas, etc.). Thunar would probably reject to copy
files based on its estimation, while it would in reality be possible to
copy the files. Even if it would be possible to take care of all
conditions on all supported platforms, it'd require atleast a year or
two to come up with a working implementation. Really not something I'd
want to waste my time with.
Oops, sorry... Since Thunar is able to report free space on a mount, i
thought it shouldn't be that difficult to implement a 'cancel/continue
anyway' dialog...
