What's not clear from your replies is whether it tracks renames like mercurial, by having users run a manual command to ensure the VCS know about the rename. Except if bk has a file system monitor, I'll assume that's what it does. Unfortunately, data on a few Mercurial repositories I looked at (Mozilla's and Mercurial's) shows that people don't mark all file renames.

The only way I'm familiar with instructing mercurial to do this is with

    hg addremove -s
Is there another way to indicate a rename?
