[Dario Ruellan <1072135@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Seems to be (still) a problem on Nautilus 3.6.3: if you cancel a file copy, the unfinished file is left over in the destination folder (without any indication the file is not complete).
The upstram bug seems very old (targetting version 2.16.x), I'll try to reopen it on the 3.x branch, and reasign the bug here.

** Summary changed:

- Cancelling a file transfer should delete the incomplete file on the destination path
+ Canceled copy/move operations should not left incomplete files

Title:
  Canceled copy/move operations should not left incomplete files

Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  Confirmed
Status in Nautilus:
  New
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This is not a bug but a possible usability improvement.

  Test case:
   - Open Nautilus
   - Open a second folder on a tab
   - Copy/move a big file form one tab to another
   - Cancel the transfer using the X button.

  The unfinished file remains on the destination folder, now, since this
  file is incomplete (possibly unusable) and the user directly stated
  that he/she don't want to transfer this file, I think that is safer to
  delete the destination copy alltogether. Otherwise could be indexed
  and cause some confusion.
