Re: how to omit rename file when commit

["Frank Li" <lznuaa@gmail.com>]

For example:
there are 2 file. a.c and e.c
I modify e.c.
and git mv a.c b.c

git update-index e.c

I just want to commit e.c and don't commit rename(a.c -> b.c)

I am debuging a tortoisegit.  at commit dialog, there will be show all
changed as
[x] rename (a.c => b.c)
[x] modify (e.c)
button [OK]

assume user uncheck rename
[]rename (a.c=>b.c)
[x]modify (e.c)

then click okay.

I don't know use which git command to handle this case.
if git mv b.c a.c, local working copy will be changed.
