Excellent!

(this method currently die()s. ok)

nit: Extraneous braces?

I'm getting the point of the review/evening where I'm starting to gloss
over these important details. Time to take a break (after this patch).

This output differs a bit from handle_rename_rename_1to2() in
merge-recursive.c:

	output(opt, 1, _("CONFLICT (rename/rename): "
	       "Rename \"%s\"->\"%s\" in branch \"%s\" "
	       "rename \"%s\"->\"%s\" in \"%s\"%s"),
	       o->path, a->path, ci->ren1->branch,
	       o->path, b->path, ci->ren2->branch,
	       opt->priv->call_depth ? _(" (left unresolved)") : "");

How much do we want to have _exact_ output matches between the
two strategies, at least in the short term?

These exist because this is the first time we assign path_conflict.
Sure.
