edgedb branch rename
Rename a branch
edgedb branch rename [options] old-name new-name
This CLI command requires CLI version 4.0 or later and EdgeDB version 5.0
or later. Earlier versions did not feature branches and instead featured
databases. Databases offered no analog to the rename
command. To
rename a database, you could dump your
database, create a new database
with the desired name, and restore the dump
to that new database. See the edgedb database command suite
for other database management commands.
