Follow file renames

Sort of like git log file vs git log --follow file. There is https://github.com/staff0rd/github-follow-extension, but I couldn’t get it to work, and not having yet another extension would be awesome.

Sorry if there is an issue for this already, I was unable to find it.

Example file: https://github.com/facebook/jest/commits/master/packages/jest-cli/src/coverage.template

$ git log --oneline packages/jest-cli/src/coverage.template
0c9d2b6e packages/jest-cli
$ git log --oneline --follow packages/jest-cli/src/coverage.template
0c9d2b6e packages/jest-cli
d612ea12 Move coverage template to non-js file
ce5c2ebc Lint fixes
8efc492a Use eslint for linting
88a94d5d FIRST!
