           Summary: kdevelop's new file dialog overwrites existing files
           Product: kdevelop
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdevelop-bugs kdevelop org
        ReportedBy: robjo442 student liu se


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.3.0)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          Pentium III 800 MHz 
OS:                Linux

Reproduce:
* In kdevelop, choose file > new, or click the new file icon.
* Enter a directory and a filename that already exists
* Click OK
* The file will now be overwritten without warning!

Suggestion:
In case the file already exists, show a dialog telling the user so. The option to overwrite should not even exist.
The "new file dialog" is not the place for file management!
