I20110530 If you rename a file, it appears as an outgoing creation of the new file, and an outgoing deletion of the old file. It would be helpful to show this as a single rename, with the ability to open the compare diff showing any other changes to the file (similar to how the git command line handles it). I don't think this is important for 0.2.
I have the same problem. I rename a file in branch A, modify the same file in branch B, and then do a merge, the branches are not correctly merged. With git commandline this works.
"git mv" is nothing more than "mv {old} {new};git add {new};git rm {old}". In order this to work we would need to add some kind of a hook (something like org.eclipse.core.resources.team.TeamHook in Platform). Is there any other way?
With command line git this works without even using "git mv". I.e., if I move a file using Eclipse, command line, etc, then after adding the changes they show up in git status as moved. I assume they are using the file content hash to detect that they are the same file.
Closing as part of a mass clean up of inactive bugs. Please reopen if this problem still occurs or is relevant to you. For more details see: https://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/orion-dev/msg03444.html
