I've recently been working on designs for conflict handling in GNOME's Files app. (Like, what happens if you paste a file and an existing file has the same name.)

It took a few rounds of iteration, but I'm starting to feel happy with the result.

@allanday That looks amazing! 😍

I rarely used the merge option before, I never was super sure what it would do exactly, but that new design would make me use it frequently, such a great UI!

@laria @allanday Same here. It looks great but I would never click merge, because I don't understand what it does 🙈

@gu_stav @laria The info button contains a description of what merge does. It might be interesting to surface that somehow.

@allanday @laria Thank you Allan. That indeed explains it to me. The only thing I am wondering about whether I would click on merge without knowing the effects first (because the contextual help is nested within the tabs content), but I guess it is a behavioral one can learn.

Great work!
