--merge option for move

[kellyselden]

I have the need for the following workflow:

• if dest doesn't exist, move
• otherwise, loop over contents
  • repeat

The main difference with the current move is that it deletes the dest before the move, whereas this would merge if conflicted. I figured I would offer to attempt to build it here instead of a new package, if you're interested.

Not sure I understand what you mean by "loop over contents"

[kellyselden]

If it's a folder, readdir and repeat the check for all contents, then recurse until done. The goal is short-circuit at every opportunity to just do a move/rename.

Hmm, seems pretty complicated. Basically like rsync, but moving instead of copying.
