Subject: file rename causes history to disappear
Date: Wed, 06 Sep 2006 10:52:43 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <44FEE0BB.2060601@garzik.org> (raw)
I moved a bunch of SATA drivers in the Linux kernel from drivers/scsi to
drivers/ata.
When I tried to look at the past history of a file using
git-whatchanged, post-rename, it only shows the history from HEAD to the
point of rename. Everything prior to the rename is lost.
I also tried git-whatchanged on the old path, but that produces an error.
[jgarzik@pretzel libata-dev]$ rpm -q git-core
git-core-1.4.1-1.fc5
Repository ("upstream" branch):
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgarzik/libata-dev.git
