Rename file for all commits in git repository

Question

I want to rename a file for all the commits in git repository, here\'s what I have tried:

git filter-branch --index-filter \'git mv -k  

        

Answer 1

For anyone interested in just renaming a file - git rebase -i will work just fine - include the commit that created the file in the rebase, mark it with edit and just rename the file, git will apply the next commits to this file correctly.
