Description Edho Arief 2014-03-27 04:30:00 UTC

Currently, -I flag is completely unrelated with -f and -i flag despite having similar purpose (interactivity). It's especially weird when using -If (expected: no prompt).

This patch changes the behavior so (-f|-i|-I) overrides each other flags (currently only between -i and -f).

Sorry if duplicate.

Fix: Patch attached with submission follows:

Any way I can move this forward? Comments? Rejection? Anything? Anyone? Is there no one aliasing rm to `rm -I` and annoyed that `-f` doesn't override `-I`?
