Thanks!

I'm surprised this one was merged straight down to next; perhaps I
should have highlighted my plans a bit clearer in the thread?  I did
mention (at the end of an email) at [1], that

"Oh, and I think there's another place in the code that needs to be
tweaked to make sure we handle renaming subdirectories into the root
directory that I missed (and just wasn't tested by this testcase), so
I'll check into it and if so fix the code and add another testcase,
and include the fixups I agreed to above and send out a v2.  Probably
won't get to it until the middle of next week, though."

So, I guess I'll submit a fixup patch on top instead, either later
today or tomorrow.

Also, a very minor point but "glitches" may be misleading; it suggests
(to me at least) a malfunction rather than a failure to trigger, and
it's really only the special case of renaming/merging of a directory
into the root directory that the previous heuristics failed to detect.
The rest of the fixes were make-the-code-clearer (there were a couple
places in the code that were technically correct but quite misleading
and hard to reason about).
