 rewrite builtin/revert.c (81%)
 rename builtin/revert.c => sequencer.c (81%)

Is it supposed to influence the diffstat?  I don't see any conflict
markers in sequencer.c.  I can see lots of unintelligent (and useless)
conflict markers in builtin/revert.c.

Perhaps "git merge-recursive" and its callers don't use the equivalent
of -B, so it doesn't look like a rename to them.  Cases involving
plain renames work fine for me.
