I just stumbled across the following oddity:
mv tracked-file new-path
git add -N new-path
git status
..shows:
On branch master
Changes not staged for commit:
(use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
(use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
renamed: tracked-file -> tracked-file
no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a")
Bisect points at 425a28e0a ("diff-lib: allow ita entries treated as
"not yet exist in index"", 2016-10-24), but I don't have enough
context to suggest the right fix.
Failing test is included below.
