Subject: git log --follow <filename> doesn't follow across 'subtree strategy' merge
Date: Sun, 22 Jun 2008 14:51:49 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200806221451.50624.jnareb@gmail.com> (raw)
When trying to see all history of gitweb using
$ git log -C -C --raw --abbrev --follow gitweb/gitweb.perl
I have noticed that while it correctly detects renaming
gitweb/gitweb.cgi to gitweb/gitweb.perl, and follows this rename, it
cannot get past merge commit 0a8f4f0020cb35095005852c0797f0b90e9ebb74
and follow moving gitweb.cgi to gitweb/gitweb.cgi.
To get full history I have to use
$ git log -C -C --raw -- gitweb/gitweb.perl gitweb/gitweb.cgi \
gitweb.cgi
Adding '--full-history' doesn't help...
