In case you decided to go another way than a plain rename, please make it easy to reuse (e.g. move_directory_safely exposed to the rest of the codebase). I'd find use for that in the series currently queued as: sb/submodule-intern-gitdir which moves git directories of submodules around (from inside the submodule/.git to the superprojects .git/modules/<name>) Thanks, Stefan
