Here's a patch series trying to improve rename limits, based on my discussion with Andrew and from some previous comments about the settings[1].

Patch 1 allows separate renamelimit values for diff vs merge. Patch 2 bumps up the default values based on some measurements I did in February. Patch 3 turns off the mostly cluttering warning message except for merges.
