Alias of #mv
Moves file(s) src to dest. If file and dest exist on the different disk partition, the file is copied then the original file is removed.
Example
FileUtils.mv 'badname.rb', 'goodname.rb' FileUtils.mv 'stuff.rb', '/notexist/lib/ruby', force: true # no error FileUtils.mv %w(junk.txt dust.txt), '/home/foo/.trash/' FileUtils.mv Dir.glob('test*.rb'), 'test', noop: true, verbose: true
