FWIW, we use git at work on a large Java project and have so far never
had a problem with git's approach of detecting file renaming and copying
on the fly. Git's approach also has the advantage that it does not rely
on the user's using a special command to rename the file. I would
expect that it is more common for users to forget to use the rename
command than it is for git to mis-detect renames itself.
