Git actually doesn't do any internal tracking of renames, so there is
nothing to be preserved. It detects renames on the fly on the client
when displaying history. (This can be enabled/disabled in the git
config, or using command line options.)

The issue here is apparently just that Jeff forgot to enable rename
detection when generating the diffstat (using e.g. the -M option).
