You should provide the lines which implement the rename and the
commit of the deleted and newly added files.

Did you use svn log on the files moved to get their history? Execute
svn help log and have a look at --stop-on-copy.

svn:ignore surely is not your problem, it doesn't affect the output or
generation of history in any way. It's only purpose is to specify to
ignore unadded files in a working copy and therefore prevent
accidental commits of binary files etc.

Doesn't seem so, but it essential to commit both delete and add of the
renamed file in the same commit.

stop-on-copy is an argument to svn log, you won't see it in any
output, just the results may not be what you expect. Besides that, it
seems that OpenGrok is able to handle renames, but your version may
simply have bugs:
