NAME
mvr - like mv, but clever
VERSION
version 0.005
SYNOPSIS
mv source.txt dest.txt
mv source{1,2,3}.txt dest # don't care if source1.txt already exists
mv DSC*.jpg ~/Pictures # don't care if DSC0001.jpg already exists
DESCRIPTION
Renames source files like mv
, but gives them a unique name if the name you tried to use was already taken.
OPTIONS
- --deduplicate, --no-deduplicate
-
Whether to enable deduplication. If enabled (the default), then upon encountering a name conflict, the script will check whether the source and destination files have the same contents. If they do, the source file will simply be removed, rather than adding another copy of the file to the destination. Use
--no-deduplicate
to disable this behaviour. - --verbose, --quiet
-
Provides output describing operations. Use
--quiet
to silence all non-error output. - --help, -?
-
Show this documentation.
- --version
-
Show version information.
NAMING
mvr
is like mv
, but also does automatic renaming for uniqueness, so mvr
actually means "move-rename" but has the added coincidental feature of being the word "mover" with the vowels removed for Maximum Trendiness.
