 Reboot of an attempt to detect wholesale directory renames and use
 it while merging.

Thanks for rebasing/cherry-picking the series and applying my newest
changes.  It looks like a couple of your squashed fixes in the rebase
of the old commits ...

Thanks for rebooting the effort.  The above wasn't a serious attempt
to re-queue the series to be polished for 'next'---to me, this
branch was primarily to keep track of your interim 29+fractional
patches until "the real thing", possibly rebased to newer codebase,
gets submitted.

Also, the newest patches can still be fooled by a specially crafted
rename/add conflict, but I believe with a small restructure I can both
simplify the code and cover all the cases.

That's nice.  Very much looking forward to the updates.

Thanks.
