Thibaud Lepretre updated SCM-776:
---------------------------------

    Description: 
Git (and hg) works with contents and not files so by default git 
log/whatchanged does not log any modification before rename/move.

In order to print all log git (and hg) provides an option --follow. But its 
option must be only set with file and not directory.

So is it possible to enhance changelog api in order to support:

- [API] Changelog single file
- [GIT/HG providers] Ability to enable or disable --follow option
