[PATCH v7 1/2] blame: prevent error if range ends past end of file

2018-06-14 Thread istephens
From: Isabella Stephens 

If the -L option is used to specify a line range in git blame, and the
end of the range is past the end of the file, git will fail with a fatal
error. This commit prevents such behavior - instead we display the blame
for existing lines within the specified range. Tests are amended
accordingly.

This commit also fixes two corner cases. Blaming -L n,-(n+1) now blames
the first n lines of a file rather than from n to the end of the file.
Blaming -L ,-n will be treated as -L 1,-n and blame the first line of
the file, rather than blaming the whole file.

[PATCH v5 0/2] blame and log: prevent error if range ends past end of file

2018-05-28 Thread istephens
Okay, I think that sounds reasonable. I've amended the patch so that the
line number is clipped to 1 when reading in a line range. And -L,-n is now
treated the same as -L1,-n i.e. it will blame (or log) the first line of the
file only.

[PATCH v4 0/2] blame and log: prevent error if range ends past end of file

2018-04-26 Thread istephens
Picking this back up after a little while. This solution means we can still 
accept
-L, for an empty file but any other range will fail. I've made the change for 
both
blame and log (as two separate patches).

I've also changed behaviour in a couple of corner cases - before we couldn't
distinguish between -Ln,-(n+1) and -Ln, so -Ln,-(n+1) would blame from n to the 
end of
the file rather than the first n lines. Also, we now complain that -L,-n is an 
empty
range where previously this would blame the whole file.
