The Github API uses PATCH requests for renaming repositories (SO post here.

WDYT about an API for to rename /foo to /bar like this:

PATCH hyper://PUBLIC-KEY/foo
Content-Type: application/json

{ "name": "/bar" }

This feature would make atomic renaming possible by using drive.batch() under the hood.
