[PATCH v1] add status config and command line options for rename detection

From
Ben Peart <ben.peart@microsoft.com>
Date
May 9, 2018, 14:42 UTC
Message-ID
<20180509144213.18032-1-benpeart@microsoft.com>

Add a new config status.renames setting to enable turning off rename detection during status. This setting will default to the value of diff.renames.

Add a new config status.renamelimit setting to to enable bounding the time spent finding out inexact renames during status. This setting will default to the value of diff.renamelimit.

Add status --no-renames command line option that enables overriding the config setting from the command line. Add --find-renames[=<n>] to enable detecting renames and optionaly setting the similarity index from the command line.
