Comment (by Meanwhile):
Replying to [comment:8 humdinger]:
> The motivation: ATM, if you copy a folder to a location that already has
one of that name, you can only choose between replacing the existing one
completely or abort the operation. Therefore (1).[[BR]]
> If you decide to merge the containing files (or files in general) it
would be nice to have more options to deal with "clashing files".
Therefore (2).[[BR]]
> You should get more info to decide what file to keep. Therefore (3).

But how about the second paragraph of my first comment?
> Items <-> files, clashing, checksum etc. are just words I used for
discussing the feature in priciple. Nailing those down is the last step.
"Runtime" BTW, is the currently used term.

an indication that a majority supports the general direction.
