Usually it picks up on renames just fine, but as with git diff -M there is some
fuzziness in how it determines the difference between a file rename and an
unrelated delete followed by an add; sometimes the difference is too great for
git to consider as a rename with its default settings. I just tested, you can
improve rename detection with git blame by using the -C option though;
adjusting the -M value might also help.
Cheers,
Paul
