New issue 5871 by [hidden email]: FileReference>>renameTo: should  
assume same folder
http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=5871

We already have moveTo: for a fullName -> b fullName. There is no reason to  
duplicate that functionality in #renameTo: and it's handy not to have to  
create an absolute reference when all you want to do is a simple rename...

* FileReference>>renameTo: now takes a basename instead of a reference
* Add a passing test (which failed before)

humm does this make sense?
how do you move a file then? I think this is more unix style using `mv` for  
moving AND renaming files.
(maybe I'm missing something here since I didn't have a look at your slice  
yet :P)

> how do you move a file
FileReference>>moveTo:. That's why I'm proposing this change. We already  
have mv and I've found rename useful too.

if anyone needs it, the slice also works in 1.4, but as it's an  
enhancement, I don't know if it should be integrated there...
