This may, in fact, be the only case that's interesting to our discussion.
But I trust you realize that it's not mere file replacement that's affected
here.  Ignoring ancestry on the server side will transform directory
replacements, too, converting them (editor-wise) into a normal
open_directory() (perhaps with propchanges) where a full tree
deletion+addition would normally have been transmitted.

[Deferring further comment until we unearth the reasoning behind switch
supporting --ignore-ancestry at all.]
