From: JeppeTh <at> users.noreply.github.com To: bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org Subject: 26.3; Recursively copy a directory into a destination where directory already exists no longer works. Date: Sat, 23 Oct 2021 19:24:44 +0200
In dired-mode when pressing 'C' on a directory to copy it somewhere, it now only works in case the directory doesn't already exist. Otherwise it fails with file-already-exists error. Overwrite mode or not doesn't seem to make any difference. It seems there's a change in copy-directory where make-directory used to be called with parents hardcoded to 't'. Now it's not and it thereby fails.
