Description

BEFORE (notice Windows paths look wrong):

〉mv 8 9
Error:
  × Destination file already exists
   ╭─[entry #22:1:1]
 1 │ mv 8 9
   ·      ┬
   ·      ╰── you can use -f, --force to force overwriting the destination
   ╰────

〉mv d1 tmp
Error:
  × Can't move "C:\\Users\\Leon\\TODO\\d1" to "C:\\Users\\Leon\\TODO\\tmp\\d1"
   ╭─[entry #19:1:1]
 1 │ mv d1 tmp
   ·       ─┬─
   ·        ╰── Directory not empty
   ╰────

AFTER (full paths are now included in the arrows' messages to make lines like mv $foo entirely unambiguous):

〉mv 8 9
Error:
  × Destination file already exists
   ╭─[entry #4:1:1]
 1 │ mv 8 9
   ·      ┬
   ·      ╰── Destination file 'C:\Users\Leon\TODO\tmp\9' already exists
   ╰────
  help: you can use -f, --force to force overwriting the destination

〉mv d1 tmp
Error:
  × Can't move 'C:\Users\Leon\TODO\d1' to 'C:\Users\Leon\TODO\tmp\d1'
   ╭─[entry #3:1:1]
 1 │ mv d1 tmp
   ·       ─┬─
   ·        ╰── Directory 'C:\Users\Leon\TODO\tmp' is not empty
   ╰────

User-Facing Changes

See above.

Tests + Formatting

Don't forget to add tests that cover your changes.

Make sure you've run and fixed any issues with these commands:

  • cargo fmt --all -- --check to check standard code formatting (cargo fmt --all applies these changes)
  • cargo clippy --workspace --features=extra -- -D warnings -D clippy::unwrap_used -A clippy::needless_collect to check that you're using the standard code style
  • cargo test --workspace --features=extra to check that all tests pass

After Submitting

If your PR had any user-facing changes, update the documentation after the PR is merged, if necessary. This will help us keep the docs up to date.
