One of the points of the t/perf suite is to be able to detect performance regressions between versions. But I don't think anybody really runs it systematically; we mostly just use it to show off our shiny new improvements. :)

So I decided to run the suite against v2.0.0 and v2.9.0, to catch any regressions that have crept in the past few years. The good news is that there aren't any. But I did need a few patches to show that:

  [1/2]: t/perf: fix regression in testing older versions of git
  [2/2]: p4211: explicitly disable renames in no-rename test

The first one fixes the issue I reported in [1], which let me run the suite against v2.0.0 at all. And the second fixes something that looks like a regression in the results, but really isn't.
