I am using Robohelp 2019.0.14 with Git for version control. When I move a topic (by dragging the topic in the Content pane) from one folder to another, the Moving dialog box appears and it remains there forever. I have to close the project and even Exit Robohelp to get rid of the Moving dialog.
Can you suggest an automatic way of updating the links?

Correction:
The topic is moved to the required folder but the links of this topic on the other topics of the project are not updated.

I haven't used source control in a long time and never GIT, but perhaps these ideas might help in future.
Was the topic checked out before you dragged it to a new folder? If not, perhaps in future try checking the topic out before moving it.
If the topic was already checked, perhaps check out the entire project first, then move the topic.
My thinking with these suggestions is that there is some slowness in communicating between your computer and the GIT server, and some process is timing out, causing the failure. Checking everything out should remove any network issues that could be causing problems.
For the existing broken links, I would recommend reverting to your previous check-in (before the move) assuming you checked in recently and won't lose too many other changes, and try my suggestions above. Otherwise, I think you'll have to run the broken links report and manually fix all the references to the search.htm topic.
