Package: ikiwiki
Version: 3.141592
Severity: normal
ikiwiki is using
my @sha1s = run_or_non('git', 'rev-list', 'HEAD', '--', $file);
in Plugin/git.pm internally, which doesn't follow renames. rev-list
doesn't support tracking renames, so git log has to be used:
my @sha1s = run_or_non('git', 'log', '--format=tformat:%H', '--follow',
'--', $file);
This way, the real creation date of the file is used.
Btw: This is my first bug report to debian, so please forgive me if I
did something silly ;-)

Yes, you're right. Making the proposed behaviour optional seems to be
confusing, so I'll try to close this bug.
