That works fine but only if I know that A.txt became B.txt
Let me introduce an example:

A.txt is created - rev. 1
A.txt is modified - rev. 2
A.txt is renamed to B.txt - rev. 3
B.txt is modifyed - rev. 4 //already no info about A.txt

Looking at the first revision's log I see that A.txt existed. Looking at
the last (4) revision's log I see it doesn't exist. Unless I check out
history of B.txt can I know that A.txt became B.txt? Trace all revisions
in between to find it? It might be boring:-)
