Renamed files with git diff --name-status

[adamsol]

With this call:

simpleGit().diffSummary([hash1, hash2, '--name-status']);

I'm getting only the new file path for renamed files. Is there a way to get also the previous path?

With --stat or --numstat, I can get file renames in a format like this: src/{foo.txt => bar.txt}, but it's not easy to parse, and I'd like to have file statuses as well.

Thank you for the issue report - in the next version you will be able to check the from property of the file in the DiffResult.files array.
