On top of your patch, it was quite easy ;-)
After the "Evil merge" in your test script, I added these:
...
git diff-tree -M --cc HEAD
Sorry for the noise. The test was broken.
Second try. Sorry again for the previous noise.
This time I made sure I am getting double-colon output;
here is what I added after your test script:
for i in a b c d e f g h i j k l m n; do echo $i; done >d
git-update-index --add d
git commit -m 'Add d'
git checkout other
git merge fast HEAD master
echo o >>d
git-update-index d
git commit -m 'Edit d'
git checkout master
echo 'Another' >>a
git-update-index a
git commit -m 'Modify a'
git merge --no-commit 'Merge' HEAD other
echo Extra >>a
mv d e
echo extra >>e
git update-index --add --remove a d e
git commit -m 'Evil again'
git diff-tree -M -c HEAD
But you are right. Rename detection with combined diff has a
funny semantics:
diff-tree 9df5f2d... (from parents)
Merge: 1da47fa... 09eee61...

Evil again
::100644 100644 100644 8c3beaf... aad9366... c54c990... M a
::100644 100644 100644 4f7cbe7... f8c295c... 19d5d80... M e
This is showing that what was "d" was somehow magically called
"e" in the merge result with its own changes. --cc output is
more interesting but the point is there is no sign of "d" in its
output, which does not feel right.
If we really care, we could show a status letter for each parent
(both are renames in this case but it is plausible one parent is
rename-edit and another is modify) and the original path in each
parent.
Does it matter? I presume that a Porcelain that cares would
rather use the traditional "diff-tree -m -r" to look at diff
with each parent. I dunno.
