Subject: Re: PR: dired-do-create-files now checks for trailing slashes in the target

Message-ID: <87bl4a2nng.fsf@gnus.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87sfxmqwdr.fsf@gnu.org> (Tassilo Horn's message of "Thu, 30 Sep 2021 10:32:27 +0200")

That does seem quite intuitive and attractive (and is somewhat analogous
to what Emacs does with `C-x C-w' today).

OK, you've convinced me.  Adding a user option like
`dired-create-destination-dirs' (as Eli said) is probably the best,
though.
