.SH "DESCRIPTION"
The \fBgit\-rename\-file\fR command renames a file or directory and ensures Git recognizes the change, regardless of filesystem case-sensitivity. It combines the functionality of the \fBmv\fR command and \fBgit mv\fR.
This is particularly useful for renaming files or directories to change only their case, which might not be detected by Git on case-insensitive filesystems.
