Not necessarily. It tracks copies too, -C
Also, don't rely on githubs presentation of things as being gospel, its
better than nothing, but it falls short of git.
git log -p --find-copies-harder games-strategy/openra-bin/*.ebuild
You can quite easily convince git to pretend vaguely similar files in the
log are sources of each other with the right options.
Throwing "-M1 -C1" in that command will let git find more
Just because "I think git cant" doesn't mean "git cant", especially if
you've not asked "how can I do .... " :)
For instance:
> git log --stat -C1 -M1 --find-copies-harder
In your repo finds you these interesting "copies" if you look far enough
