I find this surprising: "git log" is pretty much instantaneous, and git
recalculates a code piece's history in the process (renaming and copying
is not tracked by git, but calculated on the fly when you ask for log
output).  In contrast, one has to tell Bazaar IIRC when one copies or
moves or renames files, so it should have the information available
right away.
