Hi,

I'm trying to rename a branch using the command line. As a first step,
I've tried

fossil tag --propagate branch ...

and

fossil tag --raw --propagate branch ...

but I'm getting the message

the "fossil tag branch" command is discontinued
Use the "fossil branch new" command instead.

  From the help for fossil branch, I can't see how that would be used to
rename a branch?


Renaming a branch involves setting multiple tags.  We should add a
command to do this...

Yes, from the documentation I could see I needed to cancel a sym- tag, 
create a new sym- tag, as well as giving branch a new value. I had 
failed on the first step.
