hi,

$ git diff HEAD --name-status
M       dir/foo1

then i commit this change, and git log says:

$ git log --name-status -1

    foo

M       dir

only. no /foo1. also is the file is dir/subdir/file1, then only "M dir"
is shown. is this inconsistency expected?

yes, i know that using --stats this problem could go away, but i speak
about --name-status

thanks,
