Move files in the Web IDE
I should be able to move files to a different directory in the Web IDE.
Proposal
Improve the Rename button behavior to support moving files and folders.
Initial | Rename (basename selected) | Renamed |
---|---|---|
- The Rename modal should show the full path of the file or directory
- The last component of the path should be highlighted by default so that the file can be quickly renamed without moving
- When moving a file
- if a file already exists at that path, show an error
- if the target directory doesn't exist, silently create the directory path and move the file
- When moving a directory
- if the target directory already exists, show an error
- if the target directory doesn't exist, silently create the necessary directory and move the file
