mv¶
- Purpose:
Move or rename a file.
- Usage:
brz mv OLDNAME NEWNAME
brz mv SOURCE… DESTINATION
- Options:
- --after
Move only the brz identifier of the file, because the file has already been moved.
- --auto
Automatically guess renames.
- --dry-run
Avoid making changes when guessing renames.
- -h, --help
Show help message.
- -q, --quiet
Only display errors and warnings.
- --usage
Show usage message and options.
- -v, --verbose
Display more information.
- Description:
If the last argument is a versioned directory, all the other names are moved into it. Otherwise, there must be exactly two arguments and the file is changed to a new name.
If OLDNAME does not exist on the filesystem but is versioned and NEWNAME does exist on the filesystem but is not versioned, mv assumes that the file has been manually moved and only updates its internal inventory to reflect that change. The same is valid when moving many SOURCE files to a DESTINATION.
Files cannot be moved between branches.
