✨ Drag and Drop "keep both files" prompt

[neil-ptr]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

When user drags and drops a file, user doesn't have option to rename dragged file in case there is a duplicate file of the same name

Describe the solution you'd like

In the alert telling the user that there exists duplicate files of the same name when dragging and dropping, add a button: keep both which will move the files and append copy to the end of the dragged files name ex: test.txt -> test copy.txt

Describe alternatives you've considered

What if there are multiple files we are “keeping both” for? We might look to Finder and follow it’s behavior.

[neil-ptr]

Looks like when you click 'keep both' it appends copy to the end of the file name before the extension. Is there behavior that allows you to rename incoming duplicates in finder? I'm not sure how to reproduce that behavior

I don’t know of a feature like that, no.

[austincondiff]

Yeah, I’d just append “copy” as Finder does. The user can rename manually afterwards.

[neil-ptr]

yeah especially considering if we drag and drop multiple files, it would be cumbersome to prompt the user to input a name for each moved file
