TFS - Is it possible to rename a build definition?

I can clone one and then delete the original, but the build history is still with the old one.

There has got to be something I am missing.

I don't see a rename option in the menu anyplace.

Update for new build editor If you are using the new TFS build editor renaming a build definition is a lot easier now. From the tasks tab you can now rename it straight away.

For the old build editor

For those using VS2015 the build explorer has had a lot of functionality stripped out of it as seen in this answer. In VSO/Team Services/whatever the new name is to rename a build definition you simply click on the 'Save' button and then when updating the reason for saving you can also rename the definition at the same time.
