Builds node; can an "are you sure?" prompt be added

Lots of times during testing I have initiated a Build and inadvertently overwritten an prior build with teh same name.

Would it be possible to add an option to the Builds node which when checked would not start the build until the user acknowledges that they want to overwrite an existing file with the same name?

Thanks!

Hello,

Not sure I fully understand your scenario here, but you may be able to achieve that through a "pre-build event".

For instance, you can run a batch file that does the check for you and then spawns a messagebox.

Hope this helps.
