+Subject: [PATCH] mv -n: do not overwrite the destination
+
+... if it is created by another process after mv has checked its
+non-existence.
+
+* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Use renameat2 (..., RENAME_NOREPLACE)
+if called by mv -n.  If it fails with EEXIST in that case, pretend
+successful rename as if the existing destination file was detected
+by the preceding lstat call.
+
+Fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/29961
