Depending on the fileset we are operating on, this may seriously decrease performance, achieving the opposite of what you want to do. Say we are copying only a few files out of a very large directory tree, almost all directories are excluded by default. In the current situation many directories will not be scanned at all (the fast mode), but if we apply your patch, all directories will be scanned. It would probably be OK to just perform the additional scan in the move case, but even then it may make things worse than they are now.
