Directory rename detection
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-The merge and interactive backends work fine with
-directory rename detection. The am backend sometimes does not.
+Directory rename heuristics are enabled in the merge and interactive
+backends. Due to the lack of accurate tree information, directory
+rename detection is disabled in the am backend.
