Git - Rename the File and Push
Once you moved the code to Git, you realized as some of the files named incorrectly. Git provided a command to rename the file easily.
Let’s rename about.html file to about-us.html file. First, remove the about.html file, then add the about-us.html file.
c:\Examples\techExamples>git rm about.html (it removes the about.html file) c:\Examples\techExamples>git add about-us.html (it adds new file about-us.html)
Finally, commit the changes and push to Git server repository.
c:\Examples\techExamples>git commit -m "Rename about.html to about-us.html"
[master 17b8748] Rename about.html to about-us.html
