use git mv
when renaming files.
This preserves the file history and makes merge conflict much less a nightmare because git knows changes in a file in a parallel branch should propagate forward under the revised filename (vs the file just getting deleted and changes lost)
Also makes the review much less a nightmare to sus out if errors were introduced in what should just be a file name change vs everything looking like 100% new adds in the renamed files
closing this because it's behind main and not a priority - in the future I'll probably do this again but with git mv
I'll also probably make method names consistent because those are also all over the place
merge into cleanup for now
