[[move]]
== Move a Change
Changes can be link:rest-api-changes.html#move-change[moved] to a desired
destination branch in the same project. This is useful in cases where
development activity switches from one branch to another and there is a
need to move open changes on the inactive branch to the new active one.
Another useful case is to move changes from a newer branch back to an older
bugfix branch where an issue first appeared.
Users can move a change only if they have link:access-control.html#category_abandon[
abandon permission] on the change and link:access-control.html#category_push[
push permission] on the destination branch.
The move operation will not update the change's parent and users will have
to link:#rebase[rebase] the change. Also, merge commits cannot be moved.
