Did I say the error message from 'mv' was not very good in the
message you are responding to (by the way, this is why you should
never top-post when you are responding to a message on this list)?

I meant to say that the message from 'mv' is good enough, so is the
one given by 'git mv'.

I wouldn't reject a patch that updates our message to something more
informative without looking at it, though.
