I'm not aware of a single changeset in the CVS repository that represents a rename. Whenever a file was moved there were separate commits that remove and add the file. For an extreme example, take a look at , which is the summary of the move of all the texi files from man/ to doc/. This summary consists of a total of 428 commits, almost all of them touching only a single file. Moreover, each file was first removed in one commit and readded only much later. A proper move would probably have produced less than 5 commits.
