Re: git history and file moves

2008/10/24 Moore, Robert [off-list ref]:

Here's what we have:

/var/www/cgi-bin/gitweb.acpica/gitweb.conf

Containts this : GITWEB_CSS = "/icons/gitweb.css";

What should we add to automatically get all file history?

Nothing. It is the default. You can change the variable Michael
mentioned to use "-M -M -C -C" but it is very-very slow on any
kind of history worth its commits.

And you almost never talk about _file_ history in Git. It is all
_project_ history, filtered for commits which touch the file you're
interested in at the moment of looking.
