Renaming Packages and Folders

This is useful if you do not want to overwrite a package or folder that has the same name in the target environment. The original package or folder remains intact, and the deployed one is renamed.

You might also want to add multilingual names for packages and folders so that users can see names suitable for their locale. A locale specifies linguistic information and cultural conventions for character type, collation, format of date and time, currency unit, and messages.

Before you rename packages, you consider the information about renaming entries and what happens to associated references to other entries in Organizing Entries.
