fast-import/export from Plastic SCM questions about renames

Hi,

I'm currently developing a fast-export (and later a fast-import) to be
able to export from Plastic SCM to Git and also import from Git to
Plastic SCM.

Plastic tracks history of directories and hence it easy to handle moves
between directories. But, during the export/import from plastic to git I
found the following situation:

R src/samples/sampledata src/samples/samplebase
R src/samples/samplebase/Test.Workflow.xml
src/samples/samplebase/new/Test.Workflow.xml

It is a "move within" a move and it always fails telling that
src/samples/samplebase/Test.Workflow.xml is not in the branch.

If I split the "move" op into a delete + an add, it works, but reading
the documentation I expected it to work.

Also, after splitting the "moves" into add/delete pairs, I've found an
issue with a simple rename:

- a directory that is renamed from src/Diff to src/diff (here I kept a R
operation)

- 1000 commits later (after tons of files have been modified inside the
src/diff dir) I get a rename like src/diff/Diff.c src/diff/diff.cs and
an error saying src/diff/Diff.c is not in the branch.

It is very possible that my export code is wrong, but I wanted to check
if it is better to simply get rid of the "move" (R) operations in
fast-export.

Thanks,

pablo
