Title: Lack of warning when overwriting extra files
Status: Fixed Type: Code_Defect
Severity: Priority:
Subsystem: Resolution: Fixed
Last Modified: 2011-08-30 16:35:45
Version Found In: 1.18
Description & Comments:
If I have an file a.txt in my checkout, and I run "fossil update" and the update adds the a.txt, fossil silently overwrites my original a.txt.

There is no fossil undo that can roll back this operation.

I tried this with the latest code on trunk. "fossil undo" restored the prior content of the file that was updated by the "fossil update". So this problem appears to have already been fixed.

Shouldn't fossil emit a warning at least, though?

I did not try the 'undo' - I assumed it would not work. :)
