"New and updated file(s) only"

2012-10-11 09:13

I have used WinSCP a long time, and I just upgraded my WinSCP to the latest version, and now "New and updated file(s) only" is broken. When I try to copy, I get an error saying the file already exists. Please see the short video:

Please can I have my old version back? I do not want to have to delete all my destination files every time I do a copy. It is too slow.

Please attach a full log file showing the problem.

To generate log file, enable logging, log in to your server and do the operation and only the operation that causes the error. Submit the log with your post as an attachment. Note that passwords and passphrases not stored in the log. You may want to remove other data you consider sensitive though, such as host names, IP addresses, account names or file names (unless they are relevant to the problem). If you do not want to post the log publicly, you may email it to me. You will find my address (if you log in) in my forum profile. Please include link back to this topic in your email. Also note in this topic that you have emailed the log.

I have rolled back to WinSCP 4.39. This problem is easy to recreate. Drag a directory from the left and drop it into the right where that directory already exists. Then choose "New and updated file(s) only". You will get an error that the destination already exists. I showed exactly how to recreate it on my screencast. Please watch it.
