Changing Project Name... [message #1828300]

I normally work in Visual Studios and changing the project name is easy there.

I'd like to get Eclipse going for me but the build breaks when I change the project name.

Or I get a strange result that I'm not happy with --

I have "hello_world" and I want to change that to "template"

When I rename the root branch name -- I get "template (in hello_world)"

When I change the build directory -- I break all the hardcoded references in the project.

The key idea here is that I need to clone these test projects so I can start to branch off of them. I don't know the correct approach for Eclipse projects. Can someone point me in the right direction?

I'm working in a completely new build of Eclipse 2020-03 and my target is ESP32-Idf projects.
