Btw, for the actual execution you may want to send a git patch rather
than a normal patch, that would contain the renames rather than huge
adds/removes. To do that, use "git format-patch -M", "git am" can take
such a special patch, and it looks like this (example done on iw):

diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile
index 3fa0a83..74b2e16 100644
--- a/Makefile
