Package: darcs
Version: 1.0.8-1
Severity: important

If I pull a patch with 'addfile' in it, but the file in question already
exists in my checkout unversioned (not recorded at all), a pull will
silently overwrite the local version. Subversion, for example, will then
complain that another file is in the way.

I do not believe darcs should silently overwrite files in that case, but
ask the user, and offer the option to abort the pull, or maybe also
offer the option to leave the local file unchanged.

The same thing happens when push'ing.
