How moving, renaming, and deleting documents carries over to the repository.


How moving, renaming, and deleting documents carries over to the repository.

Like edits, structural changes in Falconer wait for your next push.

## Move a document or rename its file

Moving a document in a synced space, or renaming its file in the **Files** tab, marks it **Moved**. When you push, Falconer moves or renames the file in the repository to match.

Changing a document's title doesn't rename its file. To rename the file, use **Rename** in the **Files** tab.

## Delete a document

1. Archive the document.
2. If the document is already on GitHub, Falconer asks **Mark for deletion on GitHub?** Click **Mark for deletion**.

The document shows **Pending delete** on its card and in the GitHub sync drawer. The file is deleted from the repository on your next push, and the document is archived once the deletion reaches GitHub. With the **Pull request** merge strategy, select the deletion in the drawer to include it, and the document stays in Falconer until the pull request merges.

Changed your mind? Click **Push** on its card in the GitHub sync drawer, then **Keep file** in the push dialog.

## Delete a file

Deleting a file from the **Files** tab also waits for the next push. Until then, the file shows **Pending delete**.

## Changes made on GitHub

Moves made on GitHub come into Falconer on their own. Deletes don't: the document shows **Deleted** so you can choose whether to delete it in Falconer. See [Get changes from GitHub](https://falconer.com/docs/two-way-sync/pull-changes-from-github.md#files-deleted-on-github).
