This patchset introduces directory rename detection to merge-recursive; I'm
resubmitting just a few hours after my PATCHv2 because I didn't know about
the DEVELOPER=1 flag previously, and my code had a number of
warnings/errors.  I would have just submitted fixup/squash patches, but
when I checked, there sadly they cause merge conflicts when rebasing

See https://public-inbox.org/git/20171110190550.27059-1-newren@gmail.com/
for the first series, design considerations, etc, and
https://public-inbox.org/git/20171120220209.15111-1-newren@gmail.com/ for
v2.

Thanks, I'll take a look!

Protip: To make it easy for reviewers add an interdiff[1] between the different
versions of the patch series, this can be done via tbdiff[2] for example,
or in case you still have the old branch around or Junio has it queued already,
you can do a diff against that branch.

I just looked through recent cover letters and it doesn't seem to be common
(any more?), or just not suitable for the series currently in flight.
