Yeah, I know there is some overlap with your work. I wonder, though, if
it may be desirable for speed reasons to have three levels of limiting:
1. limit by pathspec (what we have now, very fast)
2. limit by path with rename following (my patch, slower)
3. limit to history of arbitrary content (your work, which will
presumably be even slower still)
Obviously if your (3) can be as fast as my (2), then there is no need
for (2).
