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.
