# rename-exdev
If using path preservation and a `rename` fails with `EXDEV`:
1. Move file from **/branch/a/b/c** to **/branch/.mergerfs_rename_exdev/a/b/c**.
2. symlink the rename's `newpath` to the moved file.
The `target` value is determined by the value of `rename-exdev`.
- passthrough: Return EXDEV as normal.
- rel-symlink: A relative path from the `newpath`.
- abs-symlink: An absolute value using the mergerfs mount point.
NOTE: It is possible that some applications check the file they
rename. In those cases it is possible it will error or complain.
NOTE: The reason `abs-symlink` is not split into two like `link-exdev`
is due to the complexities in managing absolute base symlinks when
multiple `oldpaths` exist.
