PHP file save to remote without warning if file is different size, when working on team, we loose data because we don't know if someone change the file remotely.

please fix this, we can't take a chance to use netbeans because of this, too dangerous.

but we love NetBeans.

an upgrade will be nice for php, I got some website that is huge and when setup a project netbean load all the file localy via FTP. why not use a ghost vdir that show all the file from the server. on double click on the file it will show and on save it will save back to the server.

what if I have 100 website, this is a huge space use to my local HD.


Thanks for the great product and great community.

Well, you should not be using simple (S)FTP client but some real SCM (git etc.), right? NetBeans has never had any ambitions to replace SCM.

Unrelated to this issue. NetBeans needs to know contents of all the project files so it can work reliably (code-completion, refactoring etc.).

Thanks.
