#824 Open a File over SFTP (File Changed)

[stc1]

3.) Open a File over SFTP (Plugin) and Save the File later
----------------------------------------------------------
When somebody else the File has modified during this Time
the modification from "somebody" is lost.
Can you implement a time compare (when the time has changed on the file on the server),
then you get a warning, would be nice.

Has this been implemented? If so, suggest closing this bug.

If not, suggest moving this to a feature request.

[Kevin Hunter Kesling]

Pardon my (mis)understanding of the VFS, but shouldn't this be something that happens for all files, (S)FTP or otherwise?

For local, non-FTP files, this is already done. I know of inotify for Linux, but don't know how it's done for other OSs. Is this something that could be automatic, or does the FTP plugin have to do it since remote files aren't, well, local?

[Vadim Voituk]

There is no way to automate this one ftp/sftp filesystems, so it should be last-mod-time comparison.
