So in the case where 'gpt swap partA partB' is used and partB doesn't
exist, it's the same as 'gpt rename partA partB' ? That seems like it
might surprise users and I think if we changed:

We could also test for if changed == 1 and return an error. I assume
that a GPT with the same name used more than one time is already
invalid, but we could be defensive here and test for != 2 instead.
Thanks!
