FileUtils rename dir name?

Rails
1

hi

i need to rename a directory when i update category to category name.

i searched methods for FileUtils but found nothing for rename

i dont want to use mv since i need to move every file under directory to
a new directory and then remove old one

isnt there any easier way ?

thanks
