I use Debian (slink). Sorry I could not dig out any links from README.
Try a freshmeat search.

$ dpkg -s mmv
Package: mmv
Status: install ok installed
Priority: optional
Section: utils
Installed-Size: 49
Maintainer: Michael Meskes <meskes@xxxxxxxxxx>
Version: 1.01b-7
Depends: libc6
Description: Move/Copy/Append/Link multiple files
 mmv is a program to move/copy/append/link multiple files
 according to a set of wildcard patterns. This multiple action is
 performed safely, i.e. without any unexpected deletion of files due to
 collisions of target names with existing filenames or with other
 target names.


HTH.
