Directory sync explains why a file could not be written locally

Sync tells you why a pulled file could not be written, including case- or Unicode-only clashes.

What

Failures while writing pulled files into your working copy are now reported as refusals with a reason instead of thrown as raw errors, and the summary tells apart a genuine name clash from two files differing only by letter case or Unicode form, listing the paths involved.

Details
  • Recognised reasons cover a missing anchor directory, a destination that refused the write, a file landing outside the sync root, a parent path escape, a parent that is not a directory, and a path that resolves outside the sync root.

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
