As explained in another mail what we want to do is actually to transpose the changes made to F to the now renamed file G. So we end up with G containing the modifications made to F. Also we want to include the new file K. So we end up with a new commit containing the renamed file with modifications and the new files too. I hope this simplfies the usecase from a git perspective.
