If a file is unmodified on one side of history (no content changes, no
name change, and no mode change) and is renamed on the other side, then
the correct merge result is to take both the file name and the file
contents (and file mode) of the renamed file. merge-recursive detects
this rename and gets the correct merge result.
Note that if no rename detection is done, then this will appear to the
merge machinery as two files: one that was unmodified on one side of
history and deleted on the other (thus the merge should delete it), and
one which was newly added on one side of history (thus the merge should
include it). Thus, even if the rename wasn't detected, we still would
have ended up with the correct result.
In other words, rename detection is a waste of time for files that were
unmodified on the OTHER side of history. We can accelerate rename
detection for merges by providing information about the other side of
history, which will allow us to remove all such rename sources from the
list of candidates we care about.
There are two gotchas:
1) Not trying to detect renames for these types of files can result in
rename/add conflicts being instead detected as add/add conflicts,
and can result in rename/rename(2to1) conflicts being instead
detected as either rename/add or add/add conflicts. Luckily for
us, these three types of conflicts happen to make the same changes
to the index and working tree (what a coincidence...), so this
isn't a significant issue; the only annoyance is that the stdout
from the merge command will include a "CONFLICT($type)" message for
a related conflict type instead of the precise conflict type.
2) If there is a directory rename on one side of history AND all files
within the directory are not merely renamed but are modified as
well AND none of the original files in the directory are modified
on the other side of history AND there are new files added (or
moved into) to the original directory on that other side of
history, then this change will prevent us from being able to detect
that directory rename and placing the new file(s) into the
appropriate directory. A subsequent commit will correct this
downside.
In one particular testcase involving a large repository and some
high-level directories having been renamed, this cut the time necessary
for a cherry-pick down by a factor of about 8 (from around 4.5 minutes
down to around 34 seconds)
