Move files into a folder in GitHub (At their website)

I would like to move files and (if possible) folders into another folder, at a Git repository (trough the GitHub website - so not using the terminal).

Is this possible? if so, how?

A solution is described in the GitHub docs here.

You browse to the file you want to move, click on Edit this file and change the path to your desired path.

You might have to experiment around but the following might be helpful:

  1. This will show you how to move/rename files. You can change the folder path: https://github.blog/2013-03-15-moving-and-renaming-files-on-github/
  2. This here will show you how to create a folder: https://github.community/t/add-a-folder/2304

Renaming a folder will be difficult. How many files are in this folder? You essentially move a file. It's a bloody pain.

I'll adjust this with additional tips.
