If you want to rename only files, then you should do

  next unless File.file? f

This way, you skip not only the given directory and its parent, but also any 
directory inside the current. If you're sure the given directory contains 
only files, then you're approach and mine should be equivalent (although, in 
my opinion, mine makes clearer why you're skipping those entries).
