I started using Emacs dired mode to move some files in a bazaar repository into a new folder in the repository. I then ran bzr add to get bazaar to find these "new" files, and then realized that when committing, bazaar would consider the original files as missing and commit the moved files as new files (?). Is there a method in Emacs to make dired VCS-aware, so that it will execute bzr mv instead of mv?
Similar question here.
Solution: I created the new folder in the repository and then ran bzr add so that bzr is aware of the folder. I then moved files from the root of the repository into the new folder using mv (not bzr mv) and then ran bzr mv --auto to detect the moves. bzr showed that it had detected the moves of each of the files, rather than removing the original and adding the files in the new location. I then tested this further by moving a file into the folder from within Emacs dired mode and running bzr mv --auto and again bzr detected the move correctly.
