Er, sorry, yeah, I botched the recipe (I initially used "git rm" by
itself, but it complains about "changes staged in the index", so I fixed
it up manually and then botched writing out the automated version).
But I see you figured out what I meant, so...

I don't even see it with --full-history. I get:
$ git log -m --stat --oneline | head
b1a38ec (from 2671fa7) merged
a.txt | 2 +-
1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)
b1a38ec (from d0bac65) merged
a.txt | 2 +-
b.txt | 1 -
2 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)
$ git log -m --stat --oneline -- b.txt
(no output)
$ git log --simplify-merges -m --stat --oneline -- b.txt
912ac84 other 1
b.txt | 1 +
1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)
$ git log --full-history -m --stat --oneline -- b.txt
912ac84 other 1
b.txt | 1 +
1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)
Is there some trick to enabling both path limiting _and_ still showing
the merge commit? Or is this a bug?
