FTP: overwrite confirmation missing in certain case
In ftp, open a file in your editor with F4. Switch back to TC, and navigate to another folder in the ftp panel. Now edit the file, save and close the editor. TC asks if you want to reupload the file, answer yes, and the file is written without the usual confirmation for overwrite.
I switched to Linux, bye and thanks for all the fish!
Confirmed.
But Im not sure to consider it a bug, because of the message after closing the editor:
"The file %s has changed. Do you want to upload it back to %s?"

Actually i like that behaviour better
I already confirmed that i want to reupload the file, so i dont think there is a need to confirm the overwrite again.
But the insonsistency is interesting, it looks like TC asks for overwrite confirmation based on the file list, so the bug is, that TC gets the wrong filelist (i guess the actual one) when searching for the file. If a file with the same name exists in the other directory, i get the confirmation dialog
Thank God, TC reuploads to the correct location nevertheless.

Why is it worse? Isn't it better to not upload anything than to upload to a wrong location?

I have just compared the relevant function with version 6.53 - it's 100% identical! Have you seen any differences between 6.53 and 6.54 pubbeta 1?
