The idea here is that line level history will trace rename/copies of
multiple files and trace rename/copies of multiple files is obviously
a subset of tracing of it. So, what I mean is along implement such a
line level browser, I can do the --follow files case very well. :)

And as Jeff said in his mail, his implementation is necessary in speed
and please still use 'git log --follow -- pathspec' for whole file
history traversing.

Regards!
Bo
