During a merge, we might spend many seconds doing inexact rename detection. It's nice to let the user know that something is actually happening.
Given that we're doing costly work, could the results of rename matching be recorded in a .git/MERGE_RENAMES file? If that file's available, the simple merge-helper script I've described is possible... git commit would have to unlink it on successful commit... cheers, m -- martin.langhoff@gmail.com martin@laptop.org -- Software Architect - OLPC - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff
