NAME
       git-rename-file  -  Rename  a  file  or  directory  and  ensure  Git recognizes the change, regardless of
       filesystem case-sensitivity.


SYNOPSIS
       git-rename-file OPTIONS source destination


DESCRIPTION
       The git-rename-file command renames a file or directory and ensures Git recognizes the change, regardless
       of filesystem case-sensitivity. It combines the functionality of the mv command and git mv.

       This  is particularly useful for renaming files or directories to change only their case, which might not
       be detected by Git on case-insensitive filesystems.


OPTIONS
       -h, --help Show usage information.


EXAMPLES
       Rename a file:

           git-rename-file old_filename new_filename

       Rename a directory:

           git-rename-file old_directory new_directory
