Hmm, I don't think that catches file renames when using the normal 'git
diff' output:

$ git mv README README.old

And this detection should work in the default case with a pre-commit
hook. For example, I have this in .git/hooks/pre-commit:

if git rev-parse --verify HEAD >/dev/null 2>&1
then
        against=HEAD
else
        # Initial commit: diff against an empty tree object
        against=4b825dc642cb6eb9a060e54bf8d69288fbee4904
fi

git diff --cached $against -- | ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --strict --no-signoff -

and when I do this, I get the changes checked:

$ git commit -a
README.old:5: trailing whitespace.
+kernel, and what to do if something goes wrong.

README.old:327: trailing whitespace.

README.old:394: trailing whitespace.

README.old:412: new blank line at EOF.

but not the MAINTAINERS check.

git diff --cached HEAD gives:

diff --git a/README b/README.old
similarity index 100%
rename from README
rename to README.old

so I'd say we're almost there.

Thanks.
