Moving files from Gracepoint-Minisite/dev/ to Gracepoint-Minisite/ #46

Closed abeyang closed 12 years ago

abeyang commented 12 years ago

Is there a easy way to batch move all the files up one directory?

(I thought about keeping a "development" directory alive for testing purposes, but with all the different files -- especially for events -- it seems less and less worth it.)

You just need to move the files? from www/Gracepoint-Minisite/ you can do

cp -R dev/* .

Well, that's fine right now, but to keep doing continual updates… that's gonna be painful.

What I want is to do a mass "mv" from dev to the parent directory, but ensuring that git's history remains intact. For example, if you just do a unix "mv" command, what shows up on git -- I believe -- is:

rm Gracepoint-Minisite/dev/filename add rm Gracepoint-Minisite/filename

Oh, well I'm pretty sure git has a mv command, I'll look it up and let you know
