Description
I made a patch to add a move button to the directory listing of the web interface. It's used to move a file/dir inside a dir to a different dir contained in that dir. I have not written unit tests yet but they should be ready in a few days. This patch applies cleanly to both the 1.9.0 release (use patch -p1) and to the latest git (5fc99788269c350479b6ac51009d2725035ce0c5).
I have tested it in practical usage and found it to work quite well and handle errors gracefully.
Possible future improvements include the ability to move to a dircap URI outside of the current directory, but I will have to figure out how to convert a URI into a working DirectoryNode in a deferrer-friendly way before I can do this.
