This would allow IDE/Language refactor renames/moves and would make sure=20 git still detects the moves correctly for keeping the correct commit=20 history. If this has already been requested and I missed, please reply this with=20 the original request and consider this closed. If anything else is required please let me know since this is my first=20 interaction with this tracker. Thank you for this incredible tool! ​
