Can't just rename a directory with the move task





------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2003-09-02 14:50 -------
With this:

<move todir="${delivs.dist.dir}/targetdir">
    <fileset dir="${delivs.dist.dir}/sourcedir"/>
</move>

I got this output:

     [move] Moving 1199 files to C:\cvs\DS-4\delivs\dist\targetdir
     [move] Moved 2 empty directories to C:\cvs\DS-4\delivs\dist\targetdir

and the original folder was gone, so yes, apparently everything was moved.
It still took quite a while, but I guess that was just a scan of the tree
to move, as you said. The point remains that I don't want that scan ...
what I want is simply to rename the root directory of the tree, with no
regard to its contents. That is exactly what <rename> does for me -- my use
case is a renaming operation, not a moving operation -- and thus the <move>
task is an imperfect replacement in this use case. So maybe <rename> should
not have been deprecated?
