Thanks for the report. I can add some checks to make it error out if people specify the invalid paths '.', '..', or maybe even '.git'. Since --path-rename is just a string replacement (with a bit of help for handling the trailing slash for you) and since git records paths by their relative path (meaning it'll never record a name like './README'), you shouldn't be trying to rename 'modules/openapi-generator/src/main/resources/python' to '.' but to '' (the empty string). This should work for you:
git filter-repo --path modules/openapi-generator/src/main/resources/python --path-rename modules/openapi-generator/src/main/resources/python:
where there is nothing after the colon character.

Thank you very much for the explanation. Yes, a specific error message would have been very helpful :)

I added an error message for this case to the code; thanks for the report!

I also ran into this error trying to move a subdirectory to root. The proposed solution of using an empty string to represent the project root seems to cause an error: "fatal: Empty path component found in input".
Is this use-case currently supported? (Or am I mistakenly using an old version? I am using version 81cc263d7659 according to --version
)
% ~/git-filter-repo/git-filter-repo --path lib/react-app/src --path-rename lib/react-app/src: --force

The last comment is not quite the same as the original bug report; it'll be handled in the separate new bug report and this one can remain closed.
