[CLI] UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning when file was renamed

[lhermann]

I got the following error when using the cli command on a file:

$ npx git-file-history  frontend-nuxt/components/project-index/Project.vue 
npx: installed 36 in 2.806s

I investigated and found out that this commit mentions the file, but it was renamed:

$ git log -M --summary 8f85d56

    feat: make project list universaly usable [E4A-78]

 create mode 100644 frontend-nuxt/components/project-index/ProjectCompact.vue
 rename frontend-nuxt/components/project-index/{Project.vue => ProjectDefault.vue} (93%)
 create mode 100644 frontend-nuxt/components/project-index/index.vue

Looks like git-history can not handle this. Probably a bug?

Oh, I need to use the old file path instead of the current one.

Hmm, --follow is causing some other issues (see #81), we'll drop it for now.

Could you try with the new version? npx [email protected] your/file

Thanks for taking time for this! Teems like the problem persists:

$ npx [email protected] frontend-nuxt/components/project-index/Project.vue
npx: installed 36 in 2.995s
Running at http://localhost:3000

Some more context: I renamed Project.vue into something else, and then later renamed it back. Maybe this fact is troubling git-file-history.
