+Rename Limitations
+==================
+
+:program:`Clangd` shares the renaming infrastructure with `Clang-Rename
+<https://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-rename.html>`_ - a standalone refactoring
+tool. Currently, :program:`Clangd` only supports renaming a symbol within a
+single source file (as opposed to :program:`clang-rename` which handles the
+whole translation unit), but in the future it will have much better support
+than the standalone tool.

+Clangd Integration
+==================

+:program:`clangd <https://clang.llvm.org/extra/clangd.html>`_ shares the
+renaming infrastructure of clang-rename. Consider switching to :program:`clangd`

 Please note that **you have to save all buffers, in which the replacement will
 happen before running the tool**.
