Hi all,

Yesterday I changed the name of the ./Extras folder in svn grass/branches/develbranch_6/mswindows

in my local svn working copy ./mswindows I did: svn rename ./Extras ./Installer-Files

then: svn commit -m “Renamed Extras folder to Installer-Files” ./Installer-Files

the Installer-Files folder has been created, but it’s empty; the Extras folder (along with all its files) is still there; how can I fix it without making “mess” with too much commits?

Thanks,

Marco

I think that you have to rename the files individually, i.e.:

  for file in Extras/* ; do
      svn rename "$file" Installer-Files/"${file##Extras/}"
  done
