 The data command following committer must supply the commit message (see below for data command syntax). To import an empty commit message use a 0 length data. Commit messages are free\-form and are not interpreted by Git. Currently they must be encoded in UTF\-8, as fast\-import does not permit other encodings to be specified.
 
-Zero or more filemodify, filedelete, filename and filedeleteall commands may be included to update the contents of the branch prior to creating the commit. These commands may be supplied in any order. However it is recommended that a filedeleteall command preceed all filemodify and filerename commands in the same commit, as filedeleteall wipes the branch clean (see below).

 A filerename command takes effect immediately. Once the source location has been renamed to the destination any future commands applied to the source location will create new files there and not impact the destination of the rename.
+
+Note that a filerename is the same as a filecopy followed by a filedelete of the source location. There is a slight performance advantage to using filerename, but the advantage is so small that it is never worth trying to convert a delete/add pair in source material into a rename for fast\-import. This filerename command is provided just to simplify frontends that already have rename information and don't want bother with decomposing it into a filecopy followed by a filedelete.
