Actually, no. At the bottom of the mv man page (and the 'info mv' page,
which is the same) on my own Debian system, with coreutils package
version 5.93-5 from sid, it says

        ... the command
                info mv
        should give you access to the complete manual.

Entering 'info mv' brings up an info interface to the exact same page,
including the same suggestion at the bottom. This is probably more a
Debian issue than a coreutils one, though.
