Description Karl Ostmo 2007-03-11 21:51:54 UTC 
When renaming or creating a file to the same name as an existing file, provide the option to rename the existing file instead of flat-out refusing the operation.

The same "rename original" option should be provided as a third option in addition to "Skip" or "Replace" when moving a file to another folder in which the filename already exists.

This could also be a dup of bug #47893, where are discussed improvements to the "Replace File" dialog.
