mvdir(1M)                                                            mvdir(1M)



NAME
     mvdir - move a directory

SYNOPSIS
     mvdir dirname name

DESCRIPTION
     mvdir moves directories within a filesystem.  dirname must be a
     directory.  If name does not exist, it is created as a directory.  If
     name does exist, dirname is created as name/dirname.  dirname and name
     can not be on the same path; that is, one can not be subordinate to the
     other.  For example:

          mvdir x/y x/z

     is legal, but

          mvdir x/y x/y/z

     is not.

NOTES
     This command will be come obsolete in the next major release.  Use the
     mv(1) command instead.
