This had a useful comment in merge-recursive.c that I think would help
future readers here. Would you consider brining over the comment that
starts with "File not part of directory rename ..." here?

This spacing is a little odd to me, but it does come directly from
merge-recursive.c. I don't feel strongly about it.

Much clearer. If you're rerolling anyway, it may be worth it to say
something about this movement in the patch message: "along the way,
factor out the routine to update the bookkeeping to track the number of
items renamed into new directories".

And obviously this is new, but it makes sense here. Thanks.

Thanks,
