Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: unison


When files gets renamed in replica A, unison shows that the original file is 
getting deleted in replica B and the renamed file is copied again.

This is particulary unfortunate with picture archives, as they get more
often renamed but less often is the file contents changed.

Can't unison queue the cases that look like filedeletions, and at the
end, check if they have not just been renamed? And if that is true, just
rename the file in the other replica without retransmitting all the
files?

Maybe this mechanism could also catch the programmed data loss mentioned
under invariants in the documentation (moving a directory with ignored
items).
