This is my second cut at a feature like that requested in [[todo/Moving_Pages]]. It can also be found here.

A few shortcomings exist:

  • No precautions whatsoever are made to protect against race conditions or failures in the rcs_move function. I didn't even do the cgi_editpage thing where I hold the lock and render afterwards (mostly because the copy I was editing was not up-to-date enough to have that code). Although FAILED_SAVE is in movepage.tmpl, no code activates it yet.
  • Some code is duplicated between cgi_movepage and cgi_editpage, as well as rcs_commit and rcs_move.
  • The user interface is pretty lame. I couldn't figure out a good way to let the user specify which directory to move things to without implementing a FileChooser thing.
  • No redirect pages like those mentioned on [[todo/Moving_Pages]] exist yet, so none are created.
  • I added a Move link to page.tmpl but it may belong better someplace else -- maybe editpage.tmpl? Not sure.
  • from is redundant with page so far -- but since the Move links could someday come from someplace other than the page itself I kept it around.
  • If I move foo.mdwn to bar.mdwn, foo/* should move too, probably.

Looks like a good start, although I agree about many of the points above, and also feel that something needs to be done about rcses that don't implement a move operation -- falling back to an add and delete. --[[Joey]]

Hmm. Shouldn't that be done on a by-RCS basis, though? (i.e. implemented by backends in the rcs_move function)

Probably, yes, but maybe there's a way to avoid duplicating code for that in several of them.

Also, how should ikiwiki react if a page is edited (say, by another user) before it is moved? Bail, or shrug and proceed?

The important thing is to keep in mind that the page could be edited, moved, deleted, etc in between the user starting the move and the move happening. So, the code really needs to deal with all of these cases in some way. It seems fine to me to go ahead with the move even if the page was edited. If the page was deleted or moved, it seems reasonable to exit with an error.
