rename-swap - Swap filenames
This document describes version 0.010 of rename-swap (from Perl distribution App-FileRenameUtils), released on 2023-03-19.
Swapping two files:
% rename-swap f1 f2
f1 will be renamed to f2 while f2 will be renamed to f1.
Swapping three files:
% rename-swap f1 f2 f3
f1 will be renamed to f3, f3 will be renamed to f1, while f2 will be unchanged.
Swapping four files:
% rename-swap f1 f2 f3 f4
f1 will be renamed to f4, f4 will be renamed to f1, f2 will be renamed to f3, f3 will be renamed to f2.
WARNING: Be careful when running this script. This script does not support dry-run (simulation) mode nor undo. It uses rename() so it does not support moving files across filesystems; it's best to specify only files in the same directory.

To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull requests on GitHub.
Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can simply modify the code, then test via:
% prove -l
If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla, Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two other Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
