Do you, by any change, know if renames can also be done across
directories -- i.e. rename <file> <dest-dir> -- or does it only support
file-to-file and dir-to-dir rename?
It is just a wrapper around the posix 'rename' function. The source
and destination must be of the same type. It does work across dirs
but they must be in the same disk volume. It is intended for use in
performing atomic updates. There is also a CMake-language version:
file(RENAME <oldname> <newname>)
RENAME moves a file or directory within a filesystem, replacing
the destination atomically.
Is this scheduled for release 2.6.5, or is it a 2.8 feature?
The 2.6 branch is now only for bug fixes and documentation improvements.
It will be in 2.8.
