I see, thank you. But how would one ever get a copy operation to show
up in the output of `git status -z` to begin with? It appears copies
are only detected in `diff` and `show`, can be forced with the
--find-copies-harder option, but that `git status` does not appear to
take that option nor detect copies in any way that I can get it to
replicate and output that status code to me... a test case would be
great if you know one, thanks!
