Description Nicolò Chieffo 2010-01-21 17:22:37 UTC 
I'm using nautilus 2.29.1 in ubuntu lucid.

I notice a strange behavior always reproducible.

1) create a text file: "new_file"
2) rename the text file: ".new_file" (or with a name that is contained in the .hidden file list)
3) the file has the same old name: "new_file" instead of ".new_file"

anyway all operations on the file work (copy, cut, open, delete) so the only problem is that the name is not updated in the view.

I can reproduce this. i'm getting the same behavior here, confirming.
