Don't know about mercurial, but AFAIK, git manages renames as add+delete, and this is a deliberate choice: Torvalds considered that moving a file was only a particular case of moving some code, and that an SCM should be able to manage the general case. I'm not sure I agree with this, but that's what I've read about it. -- Matthieu _______________________________________________ Gnu-arch-users mailing list Gnu-arch-users@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-arch-users GNU arch home page: http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gnu-arch/
