Hi,
Following an update from 27.2 to 28.1, when a directory is renamed in
dired, buffers visiting files located in this directory are not updated
to visit the file at its new location.
To reproduce the problem in emacs -Q:
- C-x C-f /tmp/dir1/file
- C-x C-s
Answer 'y' to the prompt to create the directory. At this point the
buffer 'file' visits /tmp/dir1/file, and the file exists on the disk.
- Run dired in /tmp.
- Rename /tmp/dir1 into /tmp/dir2, e.g. using 'R'.
- Switch to the 'file' buffer. It still visits /tmp/dir1/file even
though the file is now located in /tmp/dir2.

Thanks for testing. I've now installed the changes on the emacs-28
branch, and they will appear in Emacs 28.2. I'm therefore closing
this bug.
