From: Samuel Tardieu Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2009 13:01:14 GMT Subject: Choosing between "renaming" and "copy" Message-ID: <2009-03-12-14-01-15+trackit+sam@rfc1149.net> I renamed a file in my repository, and made a slightly modified copy of it. It looks like GIT gets confused on which one is the renaming and which one is the copy, and doesn't favour the 100% identical one to be chosen as the renaming. Not a big deal, but maybe git could be more clever here. % git commit -m "Split into flash and ram alternatives."
