After reinstalling from local, deploy warns about links being overridden externally #25

As title says, whenever i reinstall from local im now presented with a dialog box telling my files have been overwritten externally. this happens every time i reinstall from local, even if i havent touched any of my files image

Can confirm. When reinstalling the files in the mod's directory are overwritten and therefore the hard links in the target directory no longer point to the same location. I am not yet sure what the best solution for this issue is, but will address it in the upcoming update. In the meantime: If you frequently reinstall mods you could test if sym links work for you, they are not affected by this issue. Just to be clear: If you want to keep the new files, do NOT accept any of the changes in that dialog.

This is fixed in 1.0.7, which is now live on Flathub. Closing
