Objective

Implement rm/remove/delete, mv/rename, and cp/copy for entries and directory subtrees.

Scope

Support force, recursive deletion, interactive confirmation, trailing-slash directory semantics, and entry/directory ambiguity.
Copy or move whole subtrees atomically where feasible and reject unsafe partial overwrites.
Selectively reencrypt destination entries when recipient policy changes.
Remove empty source directories and generate correct automatic Git commits for additions, removals and renames.

Acceptance criteria

Fixture tests cover files, directories, collisions, forced overwrite, recursive requirements, nested .gpg-id boundaries, and cancellation.
Copy preserves source data; move removes it only after the destination is durable.
Failure leaves no partly moved/copied tree or incomplete Git commit.

Prerequisites

Safe password-store core; embedded GPG-compatible cryptography; recipient policy.

Implemented in commit 410007c and pushed to main. Added storage-owned rollback-safe remove, move, and copy transactions for entries and complete directory subtrees, including force/confirmation handling, recursive deletion, trailing-slash and existing-directory destination semantics, ambiguity/type-collision rejection, empty-directory preservation, signed nested .gpg-id boundaries, selective OpenPGP reencryption, destination-first durable moves, compatible commit intents, and rollback of source plus overwritten/new destinations on filesystem or commit failure. Unknown auxiliary files and nested Git repositories are rejected before mutation to prevent partial transfers. Added 10 isolated compatibility-fixture tests covering entry and directory operations, forced collisions, cancellation, recursive requirements, directory destinations, ambiguity, recipient changes, empty subtrees, source preservation/removal, and exact-tree rollback. Verified cargo fmt --all -- --check; RUSTFLAGS="-D warnings" cargo check --workspace --all-targets; cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings; cargo test --workspace.
