  16         * different that we are better off recording this as a pair
  17         * of delete and create?
  18         *
  19         * There are two criteria used in this algorithm.  For the
  20         * purposes of helping later rename/copy, we take both delete
  21         * and insert into account and estimate the amount of "edit".
  22         * If the edit is very large, we break this pair so that
  23         * rename/copy can pick the pieces up to match with other
  24         * files.
  25         *
  26         * On the other hand, we would want to ignore inserts for the
  27         * pure "complete rewrite" detection.  As long as most of the
  28         * existing contents were removed from the file, it is a
  29         * complete rewrite, and if sizable chunk from the original
  30         * still remains in the result, it is not a rewrite.  It does
  31         * not matter how much or how little new material is added to
  32         * the file.
  33         *
  34         * The score we leave for such a broken filepair uses the
  35         * latter definition so that later clean-up stage can find the
  36         * pieces that should not have been broken according to the
  37         * latter definition after rename/copy runs, and merge the
  38         * broken pair that have a score lower than given criteria
  39         * back together.  The break operation itself happens
  40         * according to the former definition.
  41         *
  42         * The minimum_edit parameter tells us when to break (the
  43         * amount of "edit" required for us to consider breaking the
  44         * pair).  We leave the amount of deletion in *merge_score_p
  45         * when we return.
  46         *
  47         * The value we return is 1 if we want the pair to be broken,
  48         * or 0 if we do not.
