Note. When the "-C" option is used, git-diff-cache and

git-diff-file commands feed not just modified filepairs but

unmodified ones to diffcore mechanism as well. This lets the

copy detector consider unmodified files as copy source

candidates at the expense of making it slower. Currently
|

git-diff-tree does not feed unmodified filepairs even when the

"-C" option is used, so it can detect copies only if the file
|

that was copied happened to have been modified in the same

changeset.
|

Note. When the "-C" option is used with --find-copies-harder
|

option, git-diff-* commands feed unmodified filepairs to
|

diffcore mechanism as well as modified ones. This lets the copy
|
||||
detector consider unmodified files as copy source candidates at
|

the expense of making it slower. Without --find-copies-harder,
|

git-diff-* commands can detect copies only if the file that was

copied happened to have been modified in the same changeset.
