→Fixing rename errors in github
One problem that users can run into when trying to merge large number of files in github is the inability of renaming those files. The merge command on github have a limit to how much files can be renamed (not sure the exact limit, but I believe it is O^n limit). To increase the limit for large merge, users can re-set the upper limit with the help of the following command:
<blockquote>
<pre>git config merge.renameLimit 999999</pre>
</blockquote>
If you wish to re-set to the default limit afterwards, then do this:
<blockquote>
<pre>git config --unset merge.renameLimit</pre>
</blockquote>
