Bug Description

If you delete a folder with the delete key and then create a new folder with the exact same name where the old one used to be, then everything that was in the previous folder will be in this new one.

I added a video of the bug.

The linked branch shows as merged. Is the bug fixed or not? Why is it still marked "In progress"?

Because the merged branch introduced regressions - the infamous "folder contents don't refresh".
And in fact I had finished the proper fix, but I forgot to submit it for review. My bad.

To clarify: the branch merging that was done before, was reverted (because of the mentioned regression).
That is why it this now marked "In progress".
