If you move and change a file at the same time, you should use "git diff 
-M" so the changes to the file are shown, rather than separate deletion 
and addition of the file.  But I don't think moving to scripts/ is a good 
idea.  I think scripts/ should be for scripts relating to glibc as a 
whole, and something specific to a particular subdirectory should go in 
that subdirectory - so the new scripts should go in localedata/, and the 
existing file stay there.

(That principle of scripts/ only being for scripts relating to glibc as a 
whole would imply that some existing files in scripts/ should go 
elsewhere, e.g. those that are only used by elf/ testcases.  That's a 
separate issue, nothing to do with your patch.)
