"File has changed" is broken

#1 Post by JasonD » 2013-04-17 05:06

This dialog pops up when I don't want it. Every single time -- which really hammers it home. Then it incorrectly tells me that the file is being edited, when it's not. It takes on the order of seconds to appear -- I can literally select the file, select upload, and confirm overwrite easily in this time. I finally succumb to using it, in an attempt to save my sanity, yet I find 30 minutes later than it was the reason my website wasn't working -- it was uploading the file to wrong directory!!

There are several serious usability flaws and several actual data losing bugs that just make this unusable.

Please fix this. It's otherwise an amazing product.

Could add information about the target destination in the dialog.
