Is mv preferable to delete/add from a space standpoint?

jar files are zips; unless you're a) using the rsyncable patch to make
them and b) lucky, you'll get almost no cross compression anyway.

So mv isn't really relevant. (And bzr can compress across filenames
anyway, it just doesn't try extra hard.
