NAME
       mvdir - move a directory

SYNOPSIS
       dir newdir

DESCRIPTION
       moves  one  directory  tree into another existing directory (within the
       same file system), or renames a directory without moving it.

       dir must be an existing directory.

       If newdir does not exist but the directory that would contain it	 does,
       dir  is	moved  and/or renamed to newdir.  Otherwise, newdir must be an
       existing directory not already containing an entry with the  same  name
       as  the last pathname component of dir.	In this case, dir is moved and
       becomes a subdirectory of newdir.  The last pathname component  of  dir
       is used as the name for the moved directory.

       refuses	to move dir if the path specified by newdir would be a descenā€
       dent directory of the path  specified  by  dir.	 Such  cases  are  not
       allowed	because	 cyclic sub-trees would be created as in the case, for
       example, of which is prohibited.

       does not allow directory to be moved.

       Only users who have appropriate privileges can use
