I wouldn't classify this as major. To address it we'd need to do id comparisons and rename detection before altered file detection. You might care to look into that if you've got this being altered as a priority ;].

Actually I was wrong in my description -- commit uses the `wrong' order too, only replay (&c) get it right.

[damn crappy bug-submission UI...]

When you do `tla what-changed', the resulting changeset report shows renames after any modifications to the same files -- but the names under which the modifications are listed are the new names. This is confusing; one tends to read the output as if it were a recipe describing what's going to happen (even if it isn't exactly that), and seeing renamed files referenced before they're renamed is weird.

Commit (and replay) on the other hand, show the correct thing, renames before modifications.
