If marvellous renames detection capacity of Git enabled by default when
merging doesn't work for you (maybe you have to specify it manually when
you rebase, if this option ever exists in rebase, see the man pages),
make a patch file or your commit, or backup your patch file if you don't
have it in your Git repo, then try

sed -i -e '#/user#/notation#g' your_patch_file

This manual way with sed would probably be the only reasonable option
with a VCS like CVS.

Don't worry, all your fantastic work on autobeaming certainly needn't be
redone just for a few doc files moved :-)
