Any particular reason why that little tool doesn't get installed by "make install"? Is it deprecated?

Thanks.

It's obsoleted by git-mv. If you have git-rename at all you most likely have built the pu branch some time past and not done "make clean".

Someone who submitted a patch to me asked me to run a series of git-rename invocations as part of installing the change.

I couldn't find it in my git installation, but found it ready to execute in the GIT sources :-)

I do not ship git-rename anymore. Doesn't your 'git status' say it is "untracked"?

Yes, it is untracked.
