Running emacs -Q:
- C-x C-f /tmp/dir1/file
- C-x C-s
Answer 'y' to the prompt to create the directory. At this point the
buffer 'file' visits /tmp/dir1/file, and the file exists on the disk.
- Run dired in /tmp.
- Rename /tmp/dir1 into /tmp/dir2, e.g. using 'R'.
- Switch to the 'file' buffer. It still visits /tmp/dir1/file even
though the file is now located in /tmp/dir2.
- Additional test: running C-x C-s in the 'file' buffer will ask again
to create /tmp/dir1, which is normal since the directory has been
renamed to /tmp/dir2.
