Right, you cannot do 'git log --follow libibumad/' for instance, that is a documented limitation of git. You can get around this manually... $ git log libibumad/ | grep -i commit [..] 7a47c9614206e790e2e504c22fc698fe96e1bb5b $ git log 7a47c9614206e790e2e504c22fc698fe96e1bb5b [now you see the natural commit list from the original libibumad] The repository is constructed properly, but git's rename handling does not do everything you might want.
