nushell users reported the data loss that got me working on this: nushell/nushell#13082 |
- improve move-to-self detection, so this errors without data loss: ```diff mkdir mydir mv mydir mydir/subdir -mv: No such file or directory (os error 2) +mv: cannot move 'mydir' to a subdirectory of itself, 'mydir/subdir' ``` - align "cannot move source to a subdirectory of itself" and "same file" errors more closely with coreutils: ```diff mkdir mydir mv mydir/ mydir/.. -mv: cannot move 'mydir/' to a subdirectory of itself, 'mydir/../mydir/' +mv: 'mydir/' and 'mydir/../mydir' are the same file ```
