Nuutti Kotivuori commented on COUCHDB-887:
------------------------------------------
Okay thanks, looks good. The repeated line issue is still present, but that is
an entirely separate issue.
> _log handler has very odd semantics for bytes/offset, probably a bug

> The _log method for couchdb servers has query arguments "bytes" and "offset",
> but they seem to behave really weirdly. If offset >= bytes, an eof error is
> returned - otherwise offset is just substracted from bytes and the request
> behaves identically otherwise.
> A simple fix to the expected behaviour is included - offset counts backwards
> from bytes.
