In that case, you wouldn't be using the --full-history flag at all, yeah?

Right now, we can see where the file gets changed (A1), we just can't see
where it gets changed back (B2).  In fact, if I run git-log --full-history
--simplify-merges foo.txt, it looks like A1 was the last thing to make
changes to foo.txt, which seems misleading to me---history has been
simplified to the point of not being true.
