Currently we have the odd behavior > git mv -n dir/ new-dir Checking rename of 'dir' to 'new-dir' Checking rename of 'dir/a.txt' to 'new-dir/a.txt' Checking rename of 'dir/b.txt' to 'new-dir/b.txt' > git mv -n dir// new-dir Checking rename of 'dir/' to 'new-dir' fatal: source directory is empty, source=dir/, destination=new-dir Note that at the end of copy_pathspec we call get_pathspec which squashes multiple slashes (even if prefix=NULL) but does not remove a trailing slash so it is necessary to squash them all as above. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
