Ok, it all looks very nice, but it looks like -C is still broken ;)

Do 

	git-whatchanged -C -p

and you'll see this hilarious entry as the first "copy" entry:

	diff --git a/Documentation/git-diff-cache.txt b/diffcore-pickaxe.c
	similarity index 0%
	copy from Documentation/git-diff-cache.txt
	copy to diffcore-pickaxe.c
	--- a/Documentation/git-diff-cache.txt
	+++ b/diffcore-pickaxe.c
	@@ -1,150 +1,56 @@
	..

it even says "similarity index 0%", adn that sure is accurate ;)

Doing "-C50" to ask for at least 50% similarity makes it ok (and it finds
the "git-pull-script" -> "git-resolve-script" thing), but there's
something strange going on, becuase -C10 and -C90 don't work, even if -C40
and -C50 _do_ work.
