There could be a bigger problem, but it does not seem to easily
reproduce as you noted in the message. It could be that some
unrelated thing in the working tree is playing a role in this
breakage, but I do not think of offhand what that is.
Here is what I just ran.
-- >8 cut >8 --
#!/bin/sh
report () {
echo
echo "* $*"
echo
}
rm -fr test0
mkdir test0
cd test0
report working tree preparation
mkdir -p partA papers/unsorted papers/all-papers
echo outline >partA/outline.txt
echo Thesis >papers/unsorted/Thesis.pdf
report repository initialization
git init-db
report initial import
git add papers partA
git commit -m 'initial'
git show --root --stat --summary
report run mv
git mv papers/unsorted/Thesis.pdf papers/all-papers/Thesis.pdf
report before commit
git diff --stat HEAD
report make a commit
git commit -m 'moved a file'
report final result
git show --stat --summary
-- 8< cut 8< --
and I did not see the breakage. Care to show a bit more details
on your working tree? I do not think this depends on any
contents of the individual files, but

output from "find metathesis notes papers partA -ls" and "git
ls-files -s" at this step may be a starter.
