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.
