The nice thing about git is that it doesn't care one whit how something 
gets moved. So you can

 - just send me a regular patch (as a git user, it can be the "git 
   shorthand" kind of patch that has explicit renames, but it can be a 
   traditional patch with delete/create pairs too, and git won't care AT 
   ALL because the end result is the same)

 - or just send me a shell script to do the renames along with a small 
   patch to fix up any other issues that happen as a result of the rename, 
   and a explanation for me to use as a commit message.

Renames in git do not have to be handled as "git" events, unlike many 
other broken models. Git will do the right thing regardless.
