I can only assume that the symlinks would work from a technical perspective. But i think what he meant was to make the change and add symlinks for the old names around (for a [little] while). It will probably be impossible to get those symlinks into the collection, so the question is, can we have them in git anyway. Is there something like a ".galaxyignore" file? Maybe [0]?
