That we need "stop diffing after first treesame" patch in the first place means we have always been attempting to follow all the parents of a merge? I'd expect that to happen when "--full-history" was given to "git log -L..." invocation. When we are simplifying side branches without "--full-history", I agree that we should see if any parent is treesame with respect to the paths we are interested in, and if so ignore all other parents. Or am I misunderstanding the issue here?
