I told people on the kernel mailing list to please use "-M" when sending
me rename patches, so that I can see what they do while reading email
rather than having to apply the patch and then look at the end result.
I also told them that if they want to make it the default, they can just
add
[diff]
renames
to their ~/.gitconfig file. And while I was thinking about that, I wanted
to also check whether you can then mark individual projects to _not_ have
that default in the per-repository .git/config file.
And you can't. Currently you cannot have a global "enable renames by
default" and then a local ".. but not for _this_ project". Why? Because if
somebody writes
[diff]
renames = no
we simply ignore it, rather than resetting "diff_detect_rename_default"
back to zero.
Fixed thusly.

Ok, so I didn't test it much. But it seems to work now.
