Better Create failure msgs

[abrudz]

The error message "Destination directory not empty" from Create should be something like "Destination directory neither empty nor matching namespace"

[aplteam]

I find the proposed error message confusing, but maybe that's just me.

@aplteam The issue is that "Destination directory not empty" is misleading when trying to re-establish the connection between a namespace and a directory, but differences have crept in. (If everything matches, Link will happily establish a connection, though both sides have contents.) Do you have a suggestion for a better general message? (Link cannot distinguish between the case where you're trying to link to an already used directory, and the case where there's a discrepancy in an otherwise sync'ed ns–dir pair.)

Destination directory is not empty and does not match the specified namespace.
