---detect-copies[=<n>]::
+--find-copies[=<n>]::
Detect copies as well as renames. See also `--find-copies-harder`.
If `n` is specified, it has the same meaning as for `-M<n>`.

- Select only files that are Added (`A`), Copied (`C`),

- type (i.e. regular file, symlink, submodule, ...) changed (`T`),
- are Unmerged (`U`), are
- Unknown (`X`), or have had their pairing Broken (`B`).
- Any combination of the filter characters (including none) can be used.
- When `*` (All-or-none) is added to the combination, all

- other criteria in the comparison; if there is no file
- that matches other criteria, nothing is selected.

--find-copies-harder::
For performance reasons, by default, `-C` option finds copies only
if the original file of the copy was modified in the same
number.
