With a squash, the stripped-down copies are different enough from the
original file to not be recognized as descendants. The diff is shown
as a single file deletion and creation of three new files.

For ancestry detection to work 100% reliably, the descendant file must
have exactly the same hash as the ancestor file, recorded in a commit.
