I noticed that django-storages (or perhaps it's Django's storage API itself) overwrites files with the same name. This is a problem for me as my site allows user uploads, so I need to ensure that files are never overwritten.
Ideally, I'd like to be able to pass a file name to the storage backend from the view level, but I'm struggling to find an elegant way to do this. I'd be equally happy if there's a switch somewhere where I can just do something like overwrite=False and have the backend come up with its own alternative name.
