[cvsnt] Re: Status of move/rename

[Siegfried Heintze]

What a coincidence! I was about to post a query on why rename did not work.

So what do we have to do if we created a file in the wrong directory? Add it
in the new directory and delete it from the old directory?

Thanks,
Siegfried

Tony has used this feature himself in the cvsnt source dir when he
renamed a lot of files from name.c to name.cpp.
If you do a log of any *.cpp file you will see the artifacts. For
example src/client.cpp shows this (abbreviated):
