I'm not aware of a single changeset in the CVS repository that
represents a rename. Whenever a file was moved there were separate
commits that remove and add the file. For an extreme example, take a
look at
<http://repo.or.cz/w/emacs.git?a=commitdiff;h=9446f6ee8b2b0d758da9eb4b34627a33dacf8922;hp=d0b8e1ae34a5a0c6be87b291002a8a86db8be5c9>,
which is the summary of the move of all the texi files from man/ to
doc/. This summary consists of a total of 428 commits, almost all of
them touching only a single file. Moreover, each file was first removed
in one commit and readded only much later. A proper move would probably
have produced less than 5 commits.
