| git-mv(1) | |
| ========= | |
| NAME | |
| ---- | |
| git-mv - Move or rename a file, a directory, or a symlink | |
| SYNOPSIS | |
| -------- | |
| [verse] | |
| 'git mv' <options>... <args>... | |
| DESCRIPTION | |
| ----------- | |
| This script is used to move or rename a file, directory or symlink. | |
| git mv [-v] [-f] [-n] [-k] <source> <destination> | |
| git mv [-v] [-f] [-n] [-k] <source> ... <destination directory> | |
| In the first form, it renames <source>, which must exist and be either | |
| a file, symlink or directory, to <destination>. | |
| In the second form, the last argument has to be an existing | |
| directory; the given sources will be moved into this directory. | |
| The index is updated after successful completion, but the change must still be | |
| committed. | |
| OPTIONS | |
| ------- | |
| -f:: | |
| --force:: | |
| Force renaming or moving of a file even if the target exists | |
| -k:: | |
| Skip move or rename actions which would lead to an error | |
| condition. An error happens when a source is neither existing nor | |
| controlled by Git, or when it would overwrite an existing | |
| file unless '-f' is given. | |
| -n:: | |
| --dry-run:: | |
| Do nothing; only show what would happen | |
| -v:: | |
| --verbose:: | |
| Report the names of files as they are moved. | |
