May be new functionality should be added there? clang-rename seems to focus on renaming a variable in a selected region with the interactive use in mind. I.e. a user selects a variable on an IDE and rename its definition and all references. I actually tried to create this tool based on clang-rename but failed because clang-rename was too slow for my purpose. It takes a non-negligible amount of time even for renaming a single variable, and I wanted to rename thousands or tens of thousands variables. There are a few other significant differences between this tool and clang-rename as shown below: - this tool renames a variable only when it can see the definition of the variable, while clang-rename renames a specified variable unconditionally - clang-rename is an interactive tool, and you need to specify a new name by hand. On the other hand, this tool automatically generates a new name for each variable - the core part of my tool is to find variables to rename, while clang-rename doesn't do anything for that Overall, this tool is I think significantly different from clang-rename.
