The `diff-so-fancy` diff colorizer produces hunk headers that look
nothing like what the built-in `add -p` expects: there is no `@@ ... @@`
line range, and therefore the parser cannot determine where any extra
information starts (such as the function name that is often added to
those hunk header lines).
However, we can do better than simply swallowing the unparseable hunk
header. There is probably information the user wants to see, after all.
In the `diff-so-fancy` case, it shows something like `@ file:1 @`.
If the line range could not be found in the colored hunk header, let's
just show the complete hunk header.
Looking at the tests, I don't think we just show the complete hunk
header, we show the offsets from the unfiltered diff as well. I think
that is unfortunate as it kind of defeats the purpose of
interactive.diffFilter which is to the the user see the diff how they
want to (so long as it has the same number of lines)
Best Wishes
