Is this command serve the purpose of renaming
Is it possible to rename files or directories using mv command in Linux. I know that mv command is used for moving files or directories around the file system. But what about renaming. Can we use this command for this purpose

Re: Is this command serve the purpose of renaming
Actually mv command is called as rename command and is used for renaming files or directories.
The general syntax of this command is
#mv geek1 geek2
The above renames file geek1 to geek2.
mv command is used not only to rename files. It is also used to rename directories.
