Hello, I've just tried your branch on my repository and it seems like it can
be a salvation from all rename-related pain that I'm regularly facing when
doing merges and cherry-picks! Thank you very much, I hope it will be
integrated into mainline soon.

However, when testing my previous merges which had to be done with helper 
script, I've encountered case of

CONFLICT (directory rename split)

Is there any way to prevent conflict in this case if files are the same, and
merge their contents if there are differences? I think it would be reasonable
to assume that move done in newest commit should win, and allow user
to change strategy via command line option, provide explicit hint where files
should be moved, or maybe even decide it interactively.
