Would the following do the trick ?

   git add test.c
   git commit

   rename test.c test.cpp *
   vi test.cpp

   git rm test.c
   git add test.cpp
   git commit -M

Many thanks in advance,

There is no such thing as "git commit -M".  git does not keep track
of renames.  It generates the rename info on the fly when you ask
it for patches, log stats, blame annotations or similar.

Could you elaborate maybe with a rough example for generating
patches.

Uh, is that a trick question?
