Why do you have the gap for the rename similarity > between the two but not between the second status and the filename? There can be renames between the HEAD and the index, but by definition there can never be renames between the index and the work tree, because we do not use untracked files in the work tree for comparison, which means there is no "new" files when comparing the index and the work tree. For this reason, there is need for similarity indices for the second one. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
