Well, 'git mv' removes the soc_camera version of this driver, and my
understanding was that when those driver will be obsoleted they will
be bulk removed or moved to staging by Hans.

Also, I feel this is trivial and I'm not getting something but:

$ git mv drivers/media/i2c/soc_camera/ov9640.c drivers/media/i2c/
$ git commit  -s -m "test"
$ git log --oneline  drivers/media/i2c/ov9640.c | wc -l
  1

Hence, I don't see history be preserved (which makes sense, as git mv
is actually a shortcut for 'mv $old $new; git add $new; git add $old')
Am I missing something maybe?

Thanks
