[PATCH v2] line-log: clarify [a,b) notation for ranges

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



line-log.[ch] use left-closed, right-open interval logic. Update
comments and debug output to use square brackets+parentheses notation
to help developers avoid off-by-one errors.

Applies on top of c0babbe69 (range-set: publish API for re-use by
git-blame -L, 2013-08-06). When applied on the original commit 12da1d1f6
(Implement line-history search (git log -L), 2013-03-28), the conflict
is in removal of "static" from some functions.

Changes since v1:

 - reword commit message a bit
 - sign-off
 - add [a,b) to comment of range_set_append_unsafe

I decided not to remove "_at the end_", as

  /* tack on a _new_ range [a,b) */

seems a bit less readable to me.
