---------------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix


Not going to do this - the current behavior is consistent with CLI and egit.

To do it right we would either need to delete the existing dir or do some "magic-that-is-bound-to-eventually-fail" change in workflow making the wizard more complex than it already is.

>          Components: openshift
>    Affects Versions: 4.1.0.Beta2
>            Reporter: Andre Dietisheim
>              Labels: application_wizard
>             Fix For: 4.2.x

> steps to reproduce:
> # EXEC: create and/or import some appliaction from OpenShift to your local workspace using the application/import wizard
> # EXEC: once you have the project imported to your workspace, delete it
> # EXEC: once it is deleted, go and try to re-import the very same application
> Result:
> The 3rd wizard page errors on the git cloning destination. You're told that the destination folder already exists within the clone destination folder. The only way out currently is to choose a different clone destination folder. 
> !application-folder-already-exists.png!
> Expected:
> It would help a lot if wizard would allow you to overwrite the existing destination. The wizard could also check if the given folder holds a prior clone and then allow one to "reuse" this folder. The given folder would then simply get imported to Eclipse and we'd fetch instead of cloning.
