When using fast-export/fast-import to interface/bridge with another VCS that explicitly tracks copy/rename as metadata, fast-export's ability to report filecopy/filerename is quite useful (if not essential).

There has been a fix in this area recently with as side-effect that in some scenarios a filecopy is no longer reported as such. These few patches provide an alternative fix for the original problem while still retaining previous fast-export's filecopy reporting.

See patches for additional details and commit references.
