Description chris CLA 2006-07-24 12:20:01 EDT 
If I copy a file into a directory already containing a file with the same name, the "Resource Exists" dialog appears, for which I have two enhancements in mind:

First, I'd like to see the size of the two files. 

Second, I think it would be nice to add a "Compare" button for text files: Clicking that button would open a dialog similar to the "Replace with/Local history", showing the difference between the two files.

Could maybe somebody point me to the classes where that Dialog is realized? I'll then try to provide a patch that at least fixes the file size thing...

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
