[9fans] APE rename: wstat for 'none'

2012-08-23 Thread Yaroslav
Is there a specific reason of forbidding wstat for 'none' in fossil (/sys/src/cmd/fossil/9p.c:130,133)? This causes APE rename() to fail almost always (/sys/src/ape/lib/ap/plan9/rename.c:43) Perhaps rename() should be fixed to match mv (/sys/src/cmd/mv.c:/^mv1) to go around this? -- - Yaroslav
