This is a very good description of what the fix should do.

You lost the above logic, and instead call find_name() with TERM_SPACE |
TERM_TAB to find the end of the first name and you expect it uniquely will
find it.  It unfortunately won't.  Consider this patch:

        diff --git a/b is file b/b is file
        index e69de29..ce01362 100644
        --- a/b is file	
        +++ b/b is file	
        @@ -0,0 +1 @@
        +hello

Your version finds "b" as the first name, skips to "is file b/b is file"
and assume that is the second name, and your new code later mistakenly
declares it as a rename and returns NULL.

It should of course return "b is file"; the complex backgracking you
removed is all about handling this case correctly.

I really wished that this reduction of lines resulted in a code with less
bug, though.
