What do I need to enter in /etc/gitconfig to get all commands that
deal with diffs of some kind to honour renames=copies ?

If there's a hard way to do something, I'm there before anyone else.

$ git grep -A3 diff.renames
config.txt:diff.renames::
config.txt- Tells git to detect renames. If set to any boolean value, it
config.txt- will enable basic rename detection. If set to "copies" or
config.txt- "copy", it will detect copies, as well.

See subject line ;-)
Works for me though. Stephen, probably the source file didn't change in
the same commit. In such a case you need --find-copies-harder, and that
seems not to be configurable as the default.

Heh. Yes, oops. His question makes a lot more sense now. ;)

I don't think it is configurable. Probably a "copiesharder" option for
diff.renames would be a sane addition.
