- Switch the synopsis to a synopsis block which will automatically format placeholders in italics and keywords in monospace - Use _<placeholder>_ instead of <placeholder> in the description - Use `backticks` for keywords and more complex option descriptions. The new rendering engine will apply synopsis rules to these spans. Unfortunately, there's an inconsistency in the synopsis style, where the ellipsis is used to indicate that the option can be repeated, but it can also be used in Git's three-dot notation to indicate a range of commits. The rendering engine will not be able to distinguish between these two cases. Signed-off-by: Jean-Noël Avila <jn.avila@free.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

NAME
|
|
----
|
|
git-mv - Move or rename a file, a directory, or a symlink
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
[synopsis]
|
|
git mv [-v] [-f] [-n] [-k] <source> <destination>
|
|
git mv [-v] [-f] [-n] [-k] <source>... <destination-directory>
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Move or rename a file, directory, or symlink.
|
|
|
|
In the first form, it renames _<source>_, which must exist and be either
|
|
a file, symlink or directory, to _<destination>_.
|
|
In the second form, _<destination-directory>_ 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 <destination> 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.
|
|
|
|
SUBMODULES
|
|
----------
|
|
Moving a submodule using a gitfile (which means they were cloned
|
|
with a Git version 1.7.8 or newer) will update the gitfile and
|
|
core.worktree setting to make the submodule work in the new location.
|
|
It also will attempt to update the `submodule.<name>.path` setting in
|
|
the linkgit:gitmodules[5] file and stage that file (unless `-n` is used).
|
|
|
|
BUGS
|
|
----
|
|
Each time a superproject update moves a populated submodule (e.g. when
|
|
switching between commits before and after the move) a stale submodule
|
|
checkout will remain in the old location and an empty directory will
|
|
appear in the new location. To populate the submodule again in the new
|
|
location the user will have to run "git submodule update"
|
|
afterwards. Removing the old directory is only safe when it uses a
|
|
gitfile, as otherwise the history of the submodule will be deleted
|
|
too. Both steps will be obsolete when recursive submodule update has
|
|
been implemented.
