This is hrev54982.

Currently only Cancel and Replace options are avalible.

Duplicate of the classic #3171 , right?

Thanks for pointing that. This one is more specific and easier to implement (add Rename button that will add numeric suffix for conflicting files). Can be considered as subtask of #3171.

OK. But it's still not that easy... :)

If you're copying/moving just one file, there are curently just "Cancel" and "Replace" buttons. Adding a third "Rename" button would be OK:

If you're copying/monving multiple files, though, you get this alert first:

Adding a fifth button seems a bit excessive already.
If you choose "Prompt" here, you'll get another alert:

Here we'd have to add another two buttons, "Rename" and "Rename all", totalling the button number to six. That are a lot of buttons. :)

single file

multiple files - step 1

multiple files - step 2

Maybe it'd work if instead of regular buttons we use radio buttons in a vertical list and a "Cancel" and "OK" button to execute the action.
A pop-up menu would require an additional click to open it, making the options not immediatly visible.

Add check box:

[ ] Repeat action for all items.

Here is what is done in Ultracopier:

I think it is nice, as a lot of information is shown in a compact way, allowing the user to make a better decision. And it makes it very clear which is going to replace which (humdinger's mockups require more reading to understand that)

It would need an adjustment: the "The file exists" text is shown only in the title bar, it should be in the window body for us, and could be a little more verbose.
