Subject: bug#55871: 27.1; vc-git.el log view 'a', 'f', 'd' do not work when following renames
Date: Thu, 9 Jun 2022 11:54:44 +0200

When pressing 'C-x v l' in a git versioned file that has been renamed,
it is possible to get a full history (ie including renames) by setting
'vc-git-print-log-follow' to t.

However, if doing this, the functions

- 'd' (log-view-diff)
- 'f' (log-view-find-revision)
- 'a' (log-view-annotate-revision)

stop working with revisions "before" the rename. There is a previous
discussion of this problem in

https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=8756

but the discussion ends by suggesting to open a new bug report about
this issue, which I am doing here.
