Hi,

    I just tried to use the git-mv to move several files to another 
directory. As the bash's auto completetion leaves the dest path ending 
with slash, the command become:

$ git-mv entry.c Documentation/
Ignoring path Documentation//entry.c

$ git status
#
# Updated but not checked in:
#   (will commit)
#
#       deleted:  entry.c
#

   Checked from the source, git-update-index do not accept 
multiple-successive-slashes (verify_path()@update-index.c), which should 
be considered as one slash according to POSIX standard.

   However, changes the verify_path() function do not help. It seems 
that git consider file with single slash and multiple slashes as two 
different object. Therefore, I added a line inside git-mv script to 
replace multiple-successive-slashes as one and it works fine in my 
system now.
