dev build from Nov 15. The IDE allows to export CVS diff into an existing file without notification. It means this is a destructive action and there should be confirmation.
It's intention. In reality just few users would care to read the warning message. There is assumption that user knows FileChooser...
The problem is that the user might manually type the file name in the file chooser without knowing that a file with the same name already exists. In that case the user overrides the file by mistake. We can't ask the user to go and check all files in the target folder if a file with the name already exists before the user types the new name. Thus there has to be a warning message about overriding the file.
