Yes, please.

Yeah, I considered that, too. So maybe it is best at the top of the
options list (but in that case, perhaps it should go at the very top of
the file).

It really wasn't too bad, actually. Here is a rough cut. Still to be
considered are:
- the XXX comment below about proper pathspec limiting. Should be easy
to fix, but I need to look into it.
- I haven't tested it with --full-diff to see if there are funny
interactions with the pathspec limiting.
- The original --follow swapped the old single path to follow for the
new one. This patch instead _appends_ to the list of pathspecs. We
have to do this because the pathspecs may still be of interest. For
example, consider "git log --follow subdir". When we see that
"subdir/foo" came from "foo", we start following "foo", too. But we
can't stop following "subdir", because there may be other files of
interest in it.
But this means if you have a history where the path "foo" is of
interest for a while, then goes away, then you move something else
into its place, you will see commits touching the old foo, even
though its content is not connected with the new foo.
We could special-case when we exactly match a file with a pathspec,
since we know it is no longer of interest. But I am tempted to call
the new behavior _more_ useful than the old. It means that "git log
--follow <pathspec>" means we are interested in what has _ever_ been
in <pathspec> (which is what it means without follow), in addition to
the history of anything that got renamed into pathspec (ever).
Anyway, here is the patch. My testing so far has been very simple, so
please try it on a few repos and let me know if it does what you expect
in all cases. Note that is based on "next", as it has Bo's
find_copies_harder patch.
