It may be that one way to do it is :
- move "file" to "file~"

It seems that in some cases this would actually make the situation worse, e.g.if there is just enough room for 'file', but not enough for 'file' + '~file'.
If you have 'just enough room for file' Geany would warn you and you would free some space. Having just enough space for one file is usually not good anyway.
But, I don't know any sane developer that goesn't use some VCS these days. So the most you can lose are the current edits.
