Package: git-core
Version: 1:1.5.2.2-3
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/git-remote
Renaming a remote requires changes in several places:
* The remote configuration in .git/config
* The remote branch directory in .git/refs/remotes/
* Any remote branch heads which reference other remote branches, such as HEAD
(which will likely contain something like "ref:
refs/remotes/remotename/branchname")
* The reflogs in .git/logs/refs/remotes/
To simplify this process, how about a "git remote rename"? Syntax:
git remote rename oldname newname
Perhaps allow the synonym "git remote mv".

Great idea, thanks! Miklos Vajna implemented it. See
v1.6.1-rc1~58^2~3 (Implement git remote rename, 2008-11-03).
