+# Renaming A Branch
+
+The `-m` flag can be used with `git branch` to move/rename an existing
+branch. If you are already on the branch that you want to rename, all you
+need to do is provide the new branch name.
+
+```bash
+$ git branch -m <new-branch-name>
+```
+
+If you want to rename a branch other than the one you are currently on, you
+must specify both the existing (old) branch name and the new branch name.
+
+```bash
+$ git branch -m <old-branch-name> <new-branch-name>
+```
