For example, suppose that we have the rule: (b ("./include" (id "i_x_header_file"))) Suppose that in the tree we're looking at, the file with the id "i_x_header_file" is at the path: "./include/X11/basic/x.h". Then the rule is rewritten: (b ("./include" "X11/basic/x.h")) and is therefore equivalent to: (b "./include/X11/basic/x.h)
I don't understand why you'd translate the ID into a filename. Wouldn't it be better to operate on IDs? Since IDs are preserved across renames, you wouldn't have to worry about trying to commit half a rename.
