Subject: [PATCHv2] git-mv: Keep moved index entries inact

From: Petr Baudis <[email-masked]>
Date: Mon, 21 Jul 2008 02:25:56 +0200

The rewrite of git-mv from a shell script to a builtin was perhaps
a little too straightforward: the git add and git rm queues were
emulated directly, which resulted in a rather complicated code and
caused an inconsistent behaviour when moving dirty index entries;
git mv would update the entry based on working tree state,
except in case of overwrites, where the new entry would still have
sha1 of the old file.

This patch introduces rename_index_entry_at() into the index toolkit,
which will rename an entry while removing any entries the new entry
might render duplicate. This is then used in git mv instead
of all the file queues, resulting in a major simplification
of the code and an inevitable change in git mv -n output format.

A new test has been added to the testsuite to reflect this change.
Also, based on suggestion by Junio about desired symlink behaviour
of git mv, I have added two tests for that; however, I do not have
need or desire to spend time fixing this, so they are expected
to fail for now until someone gets around to fixing that.
