move-a-file

To move a file and update references automatically, this skill uses git mv to relocate the file while scanning the codebase to update import statements, documentation, and configuration files for project integrity.

When you move a file to a new directory, this skill scans the codebase and automatically updates all import statements and cross-references in source code, documentation, and build scripts to prevent broken links.

To refactor a project by renaming a file without breaking the build, this skill performs broad codebase scanning to identify all references before moving the file using git mv, ensuring all cross-references are safely updated.

Yes, you can use this skill to move utility functions between source code directories. It safely relocates the file and modifies all references across the project, preserving your git history throughout the refactoring process.

The best way to update documentation and configuration files when relocating code is using an automated approach that handles comprehensive reference updates across source code, documentation, configuration files, and build scripts simultaneously.

Yes, moving files with git mv preserves version history. This skill requires precise path validation and uses git mv to ensure the relocation maintains project integrity while updating all cross-references.
