Thanks for the response, there is lots of good information there.

One clarification - can you track renames in git? I tried using git mv but from the status output it looks like it deleted the old file and added the new file. I was expecting it to record some sort of indicator of the name change, instead it looks like a short-cut for delete & add, the docs aren't clear if that is the case.

renames/removes with git-status before you git-add and git-commit. Also,
if you are tracking permissions in git (the executable bit) then you
will want to filter out any noise generated by frivolous permissions
changes between the tarball contents.
