            Bug ID: 503007
           Summary: Dolphin reports of not enough space when copying files
    Classification: Applications
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 24.12.3
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
          Reporter: mrdoctorwho at gmail.com
                CC: kfm-devel at kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

I have two folders on different disks: 5 and 10 files each. The second folder
duplicates those 5 files from the first folder. The first disk is almost full,
but all 10 files from the second disk can fit into it (meaning 10 unique
files). If I try to copy all 10 files from the second folder, dolphin refuses
the copy, saying that the first disk is full. Instead of this, I expect dolphin
to suggest to replace the existing files / skip copying the duplicates, because
all files can fit into the first disk, just without duplicates.

OBSERVED RESULT

Dolphin wrongly reports of not enough disk space.

EXPECTED RESULT

There is enough disk space if we overwrite/skip the duplicates. Dolphin should
support that.
