Review request for kdelibs and David Faure.


Repository: kdelibs


Description
-------

Equal entries implies existing directory


Diffs
-----

  kioslave/file/file_unix.cpp 4734399c3cde8e4a025539d8350ff1b3fabe83ae 

Diff: https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/120154/diff/


Testing
-------

Equal entries implies existing directory

The equal file error should take precedence over the existing
directory error, as this implies exist.

This actually prevents a data loss on case-insensitive file systems
like CIFS, where renaming a directory from 'Test' to 'test' actually
removes the single directory (both have the same inode).


Thanks,

Jan-Marek Glogowski
