11 'git-mv' [-f] [-n] <source> <destination>
12 'git-mv' [-f] [-n] [-k] <source> ... <destination directory>
16 This script is used to move or rename a file, directory or symlink.
17 In the first form, it renames <source>, which must exist and be either
18 a file, symlink or directory, to <destination>.
19 In the second form, the last argument has to be an existing
20 directory; the given sources will be moved into this directory.
22 The index is updated after successful completion, but the change must still be
28 Force renaming or moving of a file even if the target exists
30 Skip move or rename actions which would lead to an error
31 condition. An error happens when a source is neither existing nor
32 controlled by GIT, or when it would overwrite an existing
33 file unless '-f' is given.
35 Do nothing; only show what would happen
