commit queue disregards history information in CLs |
||||
Issue descriptionWhen uploading a file move with git cl upload --similarty=xxx to preserve history, the file shows up as "A+" in the rietveld UI, but the commit queue will ignore this and instead commit the file as a new file (A) and all history is lost. e.g. here https://codereview.chromium.org/1920793002

+iannucci@ as Git master who convinced me that: Git doesn't store renames in history. It merely stores each file's hash and decides on renames/copies only when user asks it to based on two commits (past, current). This means that --similarity=xxx isn't anyhow reflected this in git's history. Good explanation http://stackoverflow.com/a/21082870 So, while I now understand what you want, Jochen, I think this as WontFix as it can't be done with git. |
