Subject: Splitting files merge with branches
Message-ID: <CALZVapmJDEWyUcgdJ0C0V0bKpSyukHZ=ei9GgVh-Z0yfb8x8tQ@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

I have been using git for now 4 years, and one feature I miss a lot,
that would increase the usability of git in many cases, would be
having it detect "inter-file" movements, so that if I, in a single
commit just part one file into many, git can track that change.

I suppose this is quite difficult, as would mean having extra features
in diffs, and I don't know how could it be implemented, but that would
ease even more having integration branches, and merging one with
eachother.

I wouldn't either know how to split it, in the means that if 5 lines
are in the middle of a split, where would those lines go? But as you
have resolved quite variety of problems, you might now a way.

Just wanted to collaborate with my idea =)

Cheers,
