Since inception, git-blame -L has been documented as accepting 1-based
line numbers. When handed a line number less than 1, -L's behavior is
undocumented and undefined; it's also nonsensical and should be
diagnosed as an error. Do so.

This is complicated slightly by having to remember the previous -L range
for each file specified via -L<range>:file.
The existing implementation coalesces ranges for each file as each -L is
parsed which makes it impossible to refer back to the previous -L range
for any particular file. Re-implement to instead store each file's set
of -L ranges verbatim, and then coalesce the ranges in a post-processing
step.

Range specification -L/RE/ for blame/log unconditionally begins
searching at line one. Mailing list discussion [1] suggests that, in the
presence of multiple -L options, -L/RE/ should search relative to the
endpoint of the previous -L range, if any.
Teach the parsing machinery underlying blame's and log's -L options to
accept a start point for -L/RE/ searches. Follow-up patches will upgrade
blame and log to take advantage of this ability.

git-blame accepts only a single -L option or none. Clients requiring
blame information for multiple disjoint ranges are therefore forced
either to invoke git-blame multiple times, once for each range, or only
once with no -L option to cover the entire file, both of which can be
costly. Teach git-blame to accept multiple -L ranges. Overlapping and
out-of-order ranges are accepted.
In this patch, the X in -LX,Y is absolute (for instance, /RE/ patterns
search from line 1), and Y is relative to X. Follow-up patches provide
more flexibility over how X is anchored.

As of 25ed3412 (Refactor parse_loc; 2013-03-28),
blame.c:prepare_blame_range() became effectively a one-line function
which merely passes its arguments along to another function. This
indirection does not bring clarity to the code. Simplify by inlining
prepare_blame_range() into its lone caller.

blame/log documentation describes -L option as:
-L<start>,<end>
-L:<regex>
<start> and <end> can take one of these forms:
* number
* /regex/
* +offset or -offset
* :regex
which is incorrect and confusing since :regex is not one of the valid
forms of <start> or <end>; in fact, it must be -L's lone argument.
Clarify by discussing :<regex> at the same indentation level as "<start>
and <end>...":
-L<start>,<end>
-L:<regex>

Standard practice in Git documentation is for each variation of an
option (such as: -p / --porcelain) to be placed on its own line in the
OPTIONS table. The -L option does not follow suit. It cuddles "-L
<start>,<end>:<file>" and "-L :<regex>:<file>", separated by a comma.
This is inconsistent and potentially confusing since the comma
separating them is typeset the same as the comma in "<start>,<end>". Fix
this by placing each variation on its own line.

When 12da1d1f added -L support to git-log, a broken bounds check was

58960978 and 99780b0a added tests which demonstrated bugs (crashes) in
range-set and line-log when handed empty ranges specified via "log
-LX:file" where X is one greater than the last line of the file. After
these tests were added, it was realized that the ability to specify an
empty range is a loophole due to a bug in -L bounds checking. That bug
is slated to be fixed in a subsequent patch.
Unfortunately, the closure of this loophole makes it impossible to
continue checking range-set and line-log behavior with regard to empty
ranges since there is no other way to specify empty ranges via the
command-line. APIs of both facilities are private (file static) so
there likewise is no way to test their behaviors programmatically.
Consequently, retire these two tests.

Since inception, -LX,Y has correctly reported an out-of-range error when
Y is beyond end of file, however, X was not checked, and an out-of-range
X would cause a crash. 92f9e273 (blame: prevent a segv when -L given
start > EOF; 2010-02-08) attempted to rectify this shortcoming but has
its own off-by-one error which allows X to extend one line past end of
file. For example, given a file with 5 lines:
git blame -L5 foo # OK, blames line 5
git blame -L6 foo # accepted, no error, no output, huh?
git blame -L7 foo # error "fatal: file foo has only 5 lines"
Fix this bug.
In order to avoid regressing "blame foo" when foo is an empty file, the
fix is slightly more complicated than changing '<' to '<='.

The empty file test without -L is of particular interest. Historically,

Sub-test 42 of t8001 and t8002 ("blame -L :literal") fails on NetBSD
with the following verbose output:
git annotate -L:main hello.c
Author F (expected 4, attributed 3) bad
Author G (expected 1, attributed 1) good
This is not caused by different behaviour of git blame or annotate on
that platform, but by different test input, in turn caused by a sed
command that forgets to add a newline on NetBSD. Here's the diff of the
commit that adds "goodbye" to hello.c, for Linux:

The test file that the UTF-16 rejection test looks for is missing, but this went
unnoticed because the test is expected to fail anyway; as a consequence, the

because the test file contains a NUL byte. Fix this by including a sample text
file containing a commit message encoded in UTF-16.

Cygwin port added a "not quite correct but a lot faster and good
enough for many lstat() calls that are only used to see if the

time ago, and it started biting us in places. This removes it and
uses the standard lstat() that comes with Cygwin.
Recent topic that uses lstat on packed-refs file is broken when
this cheating lstat is used, and this is a simplest fix that is
also the cleanest direction to go in the long run.

name followed by a whitespace, but it turns out that scripts feed
random extended SHA-1 expressions (e.g. "HEAD:$pathname") in which
a whitespace has to be kept.
