Wow. Nerd snipe successful. This turned out to be quite tricky, but also kind of interesting. Here's a series which fixes it. The meaty bits are in the final commit; the rest is just preparatory cleanup, and adding some tests (all are cases which I managed to break while fixing this). [1/7]: diff-highlight: correct test graph diagram [2/7]: diff-highlight: use test_tick in graph test [3/7]: diff-highlight: prefer "echo" to "cat" in tests [4/7]: diff-highlight: test interleaved parallel lines of history [5/7]: diff-highlight: test graphs with --color [6/7]: diff-highlight: factor out flush_hunk() helper [7/7]: diff-highlight: detect --graph by indent contrib/diff-highlight/DiffHighlight.pm | 89 +++++++++++++++---- .../diff-highlight/t/t9400-diff-highlight.sh | 81 +++++++++++++---- 2 files changed, 133 insertions(+), 37 deletions(-) -Peff
