I like the idea.

The comparisons confuse me. detectRenames != "false" > 0 ? How about just detectRenames == "true"?

You could rename the existing self.detectRename to add an "s" so it all makes a bit more sense.

    if not self.detectRenames:
	# not explicitly set, check the config variable
	b = gitConfig("git-p4.detectRenames")
	if b == "true":
	    self.detectRenames = "-M"
    if self.detectRenames:
	diffOpts = "-M"
    else:
	diffOpts = ""

If you rename the file and also cause its perms to change (say add +x), does it still work if dest is not open?
