The "git mv" synopsis shows two forms: renaming a file, and moving files into a directory. They can both make use of the "-k" flag to ignore errors, so mention it in both places. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

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 [-f] [-n] [-k] <source> <destination>
|
|
git mv [-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
