When you attempt to transfer file that already exists in target directory, the overwrite confirmation dialog is displayed. It offers //Append// button. By default it appends source file to the end of the target file. But if the target file is smaller then the source file, another prompt will be displayed offering you either to append source file or to resume transfer. If you select to resume transfer, the part of source file equal to size of the target file will be skipped and only the remaining part will be transfered.
