Thanks for a reminder.  I had some vague hope that some "log --follow"
improvements[0] would arrive to make commands like "git log --follow
lib/branch.c" less painful, but that doesn't seem to be happening.
It's probably best not to wait forever.

As for the patch itself: my main thought is that I prefer to see
"branch.c" and "branch.h" in the same directory.  Aside from that, I
like it.  See [1] for some related discussion.

Regards,
Jonathan
