Rename folder bug
Posted: 25 Jan 2018 02:41
I accidentally renamed folder (A) to name (B) that already existed in that folder. When i pressed Enter, wild Windows copy dialog appeared. It was the moment I knew I fukd up. I pressed No on first name conflict.
Almost all files moved from (A) to (B). Only few files remained in (A) folder (because i pressed No). So I moved files back to folder (A).
Both folders were git repositories and the problem is .git folder. I dont know which files I should move back to (A). .git folder is black box for me. So it seems i just lost (A) .git folder.
Fortunately (A) was new repository with few commits and if necessary, I can clone and restore (B) repository.
I think XYplorer shouldn't let such rename or should show some dialog just like Windows explorer.
