Mv (Unix)

The mv command in Unix moves a file from one place to another, possibly on a different filesystem. The original file is deleted, and the new file may have the same or a different name. This command also acts as a rename if you move it to the same path with a different name.
EXAMPLES: mv file1 file_1 ;Reanames a file mv File /file ;Move 'File' to '/file' mv file ./dir/file ;moves 'file' to 'dir/file' relative to the current directory
