+# The following testcase just creates two simple renames (slightly modified
+# on both sides but without conflicting changes), and a directory full of
+# files that are otherwise uninteresting.  The setup is as follows:
+#
+#   base:     unrelated/<BUNCH OF FILES>
+#             numbers
+#             values
+#   upstream: modify: numbers
+#             modify: values
+#   topic:    add: unrelated/foo
+#             modify: numbers
+#             modify: values
+#             rename: numbers -> sequence
+#             rename: values -> progression
+#
+# This is a trivial rename case, but we're curious what happens with a very
+# low renameLimit interacting with the restart optimization trying to notice
+# that unrelated/ looks like a trivial merge candidate.
