I tried renaming some very large files (20-40 GB) using: mv <oldname> <newname> without changing the directory of course.
The process took about 10-20 minutes with Task Manager showing disk activity of 100+ MB/s. Is there something about such large 'renaming' that actually results in the file being really moved (aka copied) rather than just renamed? -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
