Somewhere between the git 1.7.0.2 and the git 1.7.2.0 the rename detection started to fail with fatal error on some files in our repository. The bug could be seen on the public IntelliJ IDEA repository (about 760M in size), but our users have reported it as well. To reproduce the error, run the following sequence of the commands: git clone git://git.jetbrains.org/idea/community.git idea cd idea git log -M --follow --name-only -- platform/lang-api/src/com/intellij/lang/documentation/CompositeDocumentationProvider.java As result "fatal: internal error in diff-resolve-rename-copy" is written on stderr. This is somewhat unexpected result. Git 1.7.0.2 and 1.6.5.2 seems to work without visible problems.
