Subject: log: option "--follow" not the default for a single file?
Date: Tue, 29 Nov 2011 19:25:47 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAN0XMOJsiw0c4j_LooRrj80CVVy0omGLUcjDg4QoD4mNS3y1GA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Why is the option "--follow" not the default if the log-command
is used with a single file? Many GUI tools don't show me the
full history of a single file if there was a rename in it.

Thanks
