Re: [PATCH v3 1/5] t4001: add a test comparing basename similarity and content similarity

Add a simple test where a removed file is similar to two different added
files; one of them has the same basename, and the other has a slightly
higher content similarity.  Without break detection, filename similarity
of 100% trumps content similarity for pairing up related files.  For
any filename similarity less than 100%, the opposite is true -- content
similarity is all that matters.  Add a testcase that documents this.

I am not sure why it is the "opposite".  When contents are similar
to the same degree of 100%, we tiebreak with the filename.  We never
favor a pair between the same filename over a pair between different
filenames with better content similarity.

And when contents are similar to the same degree of less than 100%,
we do not favor a pair between the same filename over a pair between
different filenames, as long as they are similar to the same degree.

So, I do not think "opposite" is helping readers to understand what
is going on.

I am not sure what the second line of this comment wants to imply
with the ellipses here.  Care to finish the sentence?

Or was the second line planned to be added when we start applying
the "check only the same filename first and see if we find a
better-than-reasonable match" heuristics but somehow survived
"rebase -i" and ended up here?

Thanks.
