You are right. If I remember correctly, earlier versions of Mercurial
did not provide this "recording removal of test.org as rename to test-
new.org (100% similar)" feature. Now problems might only arise if you
do both, renaming and modifying in the same changeset. Then I would he-
sitate to rely on this similarity test and would prefer "hg mv" over
just "mv" (and if I forgot to use "hg mv" instead of "mv" but remember-
ed before committing, there's "hg mv --after" to correct the situation).
Sincerely,
Rainer
