<henrik.lindberg>
In EGit, when copying a file over an existing managed file with copy/paste, the file becomes ignored  is this an issue, or "by design"?

<stefan.lay>
>The underlying reason is a bug in the eclipse framework: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?
>id=269067: It sends a delete event to the MoveDeleteHook because it detects that a new resource
>replaces the old one. Btw., this does not happen if the copied resource was once copied from the other
>one, because eclipse tracks local history.

>It would be great if you opened one, we could then link it to the existing framework bug.
