If this is the warning about too many files to do inexact rename
detection, I find that one annoying because I don't care about that
(it's just for the diffstat when doing a pull AFAIK) and I don't know
how to turn it off.

There are apparently some programs on some platforms for which this
behaviour is necessary...
