Two commands handle almost all file shuffling in Linux:

  • cpcopy (leaves the original in place, makes a duplicate)
  • mvmove and rename (the original no longer exists at the old name)

The trick most beginners miss: mv is also how you rename a file — there's no separate rename command. Moving a file to a new name in the same folder is renaming it.

Your files for this lab live in a projects folder inside your home directory — a report.txt and a small site/ folder. First you'll move into projects, then copy, move, and rename.
