So, given all that, revised patch below:I tried to squeeze the minimum test I sent $gmane/220919 to the test suite. I think the "do not use --parents option for this test" switch needs to be cleaned up a bit more, but it fails without your patch and does pass with your patch. I somehow was hoping that your fix to TREESAME semantics would also correct the known breakage documented in that test, but it seems that I was too greedy ;-)Thanks for the test addition. Maybe we will be able to satisfy your greed in this series. There could be more worth doing here, and I think getting TREESAME precise is key.
It is perfectly fine to do things one step at a time. Let's get the --full-history change into a good shape first and worry about the more complex case after we are done.
