Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: konqueror
Use case:
Folder tree #1:
a/
--b/
----b_1.txt
----b_2.txt
Folder tree #2
a/
--b/
----b_1.txt
----b_3.txt
--c/
----c_1.txt
If I attempt to copy folder tree #2 to the same location as #1, konqueror will
tell me that "'a' already exists - do I want to overwrite, overwrite all, skip,
auto skip, etc". The skip options will NOT recurse into the a directory; that
is, b_3.txt and c will not be copied. The overwrite options are overloaded,
i.e. they do 2 things:
a) copy the files that don't exist under a, e.g. b_3.txt, c, c_1.txt
b) overwrite any common files
What's really needed is a third option, "merge", that does a) but not
b).
** Affects: kdebase (Ubuntu)
