That's fine, but please don't call the git rename handling "maybe" or "partial", like a lot of people seem to do.
Git _definitely_ handles renames, both in everyday life and when merging. Some people may not like how it's done, but other (I'll say "equally informed", even though obviously I know better ;) people really don't like the way bzr or others do their rename handling.
