These functions were added because processing of these conflicts needed
to be deferred until process_entry() in order to get D/F conflicts and
such right. The number of these has grown over time, and now include
some whose name is misleading:
* conflict_rename_normal() is for handling normal file renames; a
typical rename may need content merging, but we expect conflicts
from that to be more the exception than the rule.
* conflict_rename_via_dir() will not be a conflict; it was just an
add that turned into a move due to directory rename detection.
(If there was a file in the way of the move, that would have been
detected and reported earlier.)
* conflict_rename_rename_2to1 and conflict_rename_add (the latter
of which doesn't exist yet but has been submitted before and I
intend to resend) technically might not be conflicts if the
colliding paths happen to match exactly.
Rename this family of functions to handle_rename_*().
Also rename handle_renames() to detect_and_process_renames() both to make
it clearer what it does, and to differentiate it as a pre-processing step
from all the handle_rename_*() functions which are called from
process_entry().

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system
Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-.txt for documentation of each command.
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the
documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt
(man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is
installed).
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://public-inbox.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.
Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.
The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):
- random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
- stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
- "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
- "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
