4 | NAME | |
5 | ---- | |
6 | git-mv - Move or rename a file, a directory, or a symlink | |
7 | ||
8 | ||
9 | SYNOPSIS | |
10 | -------- | |
11 | 'git mv' <options>... <args>... | |
12 | ||
13 | DESCRIPTION | |
14 | ----------- | |
15 | This script is used to move or rename a file, directory or symlink. | |
16 | ||
17 | git mv [-f] [-n] <source> <destination> | |
18 | git mv [-f] [-n] [-k] <source> ... <destination directory> | |
19 | ||
20 | In the first form, it renames <source>, which must exist and be either | |
21 | a file, symlink or directory, to <destination>. | |
22 | In the second form, the last argument has to be an existing | |
23 | directory; the given sources will be moved into this directory. | |
24 | ||
25 | The index is updated after successful completion, but the change must still be | |
26 | committed. | |
27 | ||
28 | OPTIONS | |
29 | ------- | |
30 | -f:: | |
31 | --force:: | |
32 | Force renaming or moving of a file even if the target exists | |
33 | -k:: | |
34 | Skip move or rename actions which would lead to an error | |
35 | condition. An error happens when a source is neither existing nor | |
36 | controlled by GIT, or when it would overwrite an existing | |
37 | file unless '-f' is given. | |
38 | -n:: | |
39 | --dry-run:: | |
40 | Do nothing; only show what would happen | |
