Hi Daniel,
most probably, under hg is not possible to add and rename and entry in
the same changeset. I actually think this is a strange thing (only?)
darcs allows, and that when the target does not handle it, the tailor
backend should collapse the two actions into a single "add b".
Thanks for reporting and testing!
ciao, lele.
