I must admit two things with this topic ...
The first is : I'm so tired with it ...
And the second is : It's the first time i can read the begin of a real argument ... (thanks for that)
But ... because there is a but ...
I also already answered to that, in the past !
I'm Ok !
I'm not Ok !
As you told yourself ...
If you can't guarantee the same content source/target, in some cases file B can be more important (or equal importance) to keep than the file A.
And as i already told in this topic ...
[Overwrite] option irretrievably destroyed the file B version ... who can NOT be recovered (on mistake)
My proposition is to add the [del source] option, right ?
[del source] option only move file A in the recycle bin, which CAN be easily recovered (on mistake)
Can't you see the difference ?
I don't have problem with the [Overwrite] option, i just tell my proposition is NO MORE DANGEROUS then this one.
OK ?
As for reminder, you can choose Overwrite or Skip options instead :
Unlike [Overwrite], my proposition permit to don't rewrite for nothing Giga of files (or more) you know as identical !
- First, you save your Time
- Second, you save your system availability
- And third, you save your Hardware (Hdd)
Unlike [Skip], my proposition permit to don't always need to remove yourself and afterward your sources files after a Move Operation !
- First, because you chose a Move (and not Copy) Operation for this reason.
- Second, when you use Multiples Move operations in background like Tc permit, is very difficult to always find afterward what you moved before, and back in all your old pathSources because you need to manually delete yourself all filesSources stayed in each pathSources of all your previous Moves![Twisted Evil]()
- And third as Second say by the fact, you save a precious Time and multiples boring Operations.
Move functionality is one of real basic function for a File Manager (as copy, del, mkdir), but sorry even it's basic ... this one is not complete for TC.
Hoping you can hear my arguments.
Thanks
Ps n°1 : I don't think anybody could be attack (in justice) the Ghisler Corporation because they lost files by themselves ...
Then it's better to remove all the [Del] and [Overwrite] functions in every Files Managers. Stupidity doesn't have limits ?
Ps n°2 : And Nobody Cry here ...

| The expected result of a Move operation is that all files moved from place A to place B are identical afterwards in place B. |
I'm Ok !

| The interest of all other people in this thread is that TC should not be mentioned in a hitlist "50 ways to nuke your data" Neither the user nor TC can guarantee that the source and the target has the same content The only thing you decided before the move operation is that the files at place A are more important than the files in place B. |
