Bug 502419

SUMMARY
When copying/moving a file to a path where a file with the same name exists, a dialog is shown stating that the files seem identical with the following tooltip:

"The files are likely to be identical: They have the same size and their contents are the same at the beginning, middle and end"

Perhaps this could be more robust.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Copy a file to a path where another copy already exists.

OBSERVED RESULT
A dialog stating the following:
"The files are likely to be identical: They have the same size and their contents are the same at the beginning, middle and end"

EXPECTED RESULT
I'd expect that a robust method is used to ensure one doesn't accidentally overwrite a file if it is different. I don't know how big the portions are which are being compared, but maybe a SHA checksum would reduce the likelihood of collisions.
The "Checksums" tab of the properties dialog already integrates various checksums, so that could be adapted.
