Why is having an obviously-incompilable intermediate state in your history a good idea, rather than using a diff algorithm that will find the move anyway?

- alkonaut 5y agoNot sure I follow. So long as git understands the move so a single file history (using the standard command or standard IDE tooling) doesn’t “stop” before the rename, then I’m happy. And I’m very happy to accept one commit in the history that doesn’t build in order to get that.
