I'm not a native speaker, but I really think 'using' is more correct here. But feel free to suggest a better wording. The intention is that we should proceed in two steps: 'git log --follow' first needs to learn to adjust its pathspec filter as it walks revisions, much like I did here. Then this patch should be reverted in favor of just enabling --follow.
