Fix cross-device link error in legacy storage#112
Merged
Conversation
Enable fallback copy in fs.Move calls for legacy storage put, restore, and rollback operations. Previously these used rename-only mode which fails across different filesystems (e.g. NTFS). Closes #104

Summary
Fix
invalid cross-device linkerror when using legacy storage with a trash directory on a different filesystem (e.g. NTFS mounted drive).Background
Reported in Issue #104. When
gomi_diris set to a path on a different filesystem (e.g./media/archive/Trashon NTFS while home is on ext4), thePutoperation fails becauseos.Renamecannot move files across device boundaries. Thefs.Moveutility already supports fallback copy-and-delete for this scenario, but legacy storage was calling it withfallbackCopy: false.The XDG storage already handles this correctly by passing
s.config.HomeFallbacktofs.Move.Changes
legacy/storage.go: Changefs.Movecalls fromfallbackCopy: falsetotruein three places:Put: moving file to trashPutrollback: moving file back on history save failureRestore: moving file from trash to original locationCloses #104
