Thanks! Actually, the -- should be removed and the filename is the actual name of the file that you want to be follow. So an example would be
git log --follow package.json
If the filename cannot be followed, Git will present you with a fatal: ambiguous argument 'package2.json': unknown revision or path not in the working tree error.
I am going to update the snippet. Let me know if you pick up any funnies with what I just posted.
No space beetwen
