       Rename SOURCE to DEST, or move SOURCE(s) to DIRECTORY.

       Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.

       --backup[=CONTROL]
              make a backup of each existing destination file

       -b     like --backup but does not accept an argument

       --debug
              explain how a file is copied.  Implies -v--exchange
              exchange source and destination

       -f, --force
              do not prompt before overwriting

       -i, --interactive
              prompt before overwrite

       -n, --no-clobber
              do not overwrite an existing file

       If you specify more than one of -i, -f, -n, only the final one takes effect.

       --no-copy
              do not copy if renaming fails

       --strip-trailing-slashes
              remove any trailing slashes from each SOURCE argument

       -S, --suffix=SUFFIX
              override the usual backup suffix

       -t, --target-directory=DIRECTORY
              move all SOURCE arguments into DIRECTORY

       -T, --no-target-directory
              treat DEST as a normal file

       --update[=UPDATE]
              control which existing files are updated; UPDATE={all,none,none-fail,older(default)}.

       -u     equivalent to --update[=older].  See below

       -v, --verbose
              explain what is being done

       -Z, --context
              set SELinux security context of destination file to default type

       --help display this help and exit

       --version
              output version information and exit

       UPDATE  controls  which  existing  files in the destination are replaced.  'all' is the default operation
       when an --update option is not specified, and results in all existing  files  in  the  destination  being
       replaced.   'none' is like the --no-clobber option, in that no files in the destination are replaced, and
       skipped files do not  induce  a  failure.   'none-fail'  also  ensures  no  files  are  replaced  in  the
       destination,  but any skipped files are diagnosed and induce a failure.  'older' is the default operation
       when --update is specified, and results in files being replaced if they're older than  the  corresponding
       source file.

       The  backup  suffix is '~', unless set with --suffix or SIMPLE_BACKUP_SUFFIX.  The version control method
       may be selected via the --backup option or through the VERSION_CONTROL environment  variable.   Here  are
       the values:

       none, off
              never make backups (even if --backup is given)

       numbered, t
              make numbered backups

       existing, nil
              numbered if numbered backups exist, simple otherwise

       simple, never
              always make simple backups
