Renaming directories generates submit conflicts

MikeMoretti

When I rename a directory in my workarea, then I List Modified and select the deleted old directory and the modified new directory and do a submit, I always get a conflict with the deleted old directory. Is this supposed to happen? How do I get around this? I'm trying to make submission part of a workflow and this will cause the submit task owner problems every time a directory is renamed...

Thanks,
-Mike M.

Deleted directories are always in conflict with staging, when the directory exists in staging. I don't think that there is any workaround. Sorry.

That's kinda silly considering that the only way to submit a deleted directory is by doing a List Modified and selecting it. You'd think that if I went through that much hassle to actually submit it that I would mean it and it shouldn't be a conflict...

No no no you silly rabbit... :-)

You don't need to first view list-modified. You can, for instance, turn on overwrite _before_ starting the submit--you won't see the conflict then.

Also, you can let the conflict happen, and then select the conflicted dirs and turn on overwrite before proceeding.

Well, the whole process sounds a little squirrelly to me! Smiley Very Happy

I wouldn't want to turn on overwrite because there may be other conflicts that need to be dealt with manually. Directory/file renaming or deleting shouldn't cause a conflict. It's a standard thing anyone would want to do on a normal basis as part of any revision control (i.e. it should be no different than editing or adding a file; the additional List Modified necessary to see the deleted file to submit it is a good added confirmation step in any case).

Besides, most of this stuff will be happening in a workflow and I don't want to turn on overwrite there in case there really are REAL conflicts that could potentially cause a problem.
