I see a lot of this has been discussed before... but just to add that Jeff's blame-log.sh: http://git.661346.n2.nabble.com/alternate-log-follow-idea-td1385917.html seems to work and show the full history of the file past the rename+merge! I was also interested in whether there's a better way of re-connecting history than grafting one repository's history into the commit which made it visible in another? AFAICS the graft is no different to a merge commit which contains a rename in the merged node, so I'm guessing this is a reasonable thing to do?
