I suspect "copy" to keep the old one than "move" would be a lot more
sensible, especially when you are talking about people (like me) who amend
often.  They cannot get it right in their first try by definition ;-), and
their very original edition is sometimes easier to start from than their
second edition, when they are trying to come up with the final edition of
the commit.  Using "move" to lose the notes from the old object will make
it harder to go back to the original and start amending from there.
