Reverse prior batch job (without simply rewriting the script)

So, let's say I have a usual batch rename file like this:

Quote:
move hello 254352426
move farewell 464473525
move 13fads 57655625635
move watswas jr3ogh39uh39
and I'd like to have a secon bat file, that can /reverse" the first.

BUT, I don't want to simply "rewrite" it like
Code:
move hello 254352426

but rather, have the new script take the source and destination and reverse it somehow like this:

move "var1" "var2"

Is this possible ?

NAME
git-mv - Move or rename a file, a directory, or a symlink SYNOPSIS
git mv <options>... <args>... DESCRIPTION
This script is used to move or rename a file, directory or symlink. git mv [-v] [-f] [-n] [-k] <source> <destination> git mv [-v] [-f] [-n] [-k] <source> ... <destination directory> In the first form, it renames <source>, which must exist and be either a file, symlink or directory, to <destination>. In the second form, the last argument has to be an existing directory; the given sources will be moved into this directory. The index is updated after successful completion, but the change must still be committed. OPTIONS
-f, --force Force renaming or moving of a file even if the target exists -k Skip move or rename actions which would lead to an error condition. An error happens when a source is neither existing nor controlled by Git, or when it would overwrite an existing file unless -f is given. -n, --dry-run Do nothing; only show what would happen -v, --verbose Report the names of files as they are moved. GIT
Part of the git(1) suite Git 1.8.3.1 06/10/2014 GIT-MV(1)
