Ooops. Sorry about that. I have forgot to transport context when doing copy'n'paste.

I have queued 3-patch series further improving gitweb search, to be sent soon... ..................................................................... -- >8 -- From: Jakub Narebski <jnareb@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: [PATCH] gitweb: Better cutting matched string and its context Improve look of commit search output ('search' view) by better cutting of matched string and its context in match info, as proposed by Junio Hamano. For example, if you are looking for "very long search string" in the following line: Could somebody test this with very long search string, and see how you would now see: ...this with <<very long ... string>>, and see... instead of: Could som... <<very long search...>>, and see... (where <<something>> denotes emphasized / colored fragment; matched fragment to be more exact). For this feature support for fourth [optional] parameter to chop_str subroutine was added. This fourth parameter is used to denote where to cut string to make it shorter. chop_str can now cut at the beginning (from the _left_ side of the string), in the middle (_center_ of the string), or at the end (from the _right_ side of the string); cutting from right is the default: chop_str(somestring, len, slop, 'left') -> ' ...string' chop_str(somestring, len, slop, 'center') -> 'som ... ing' chop_str(somestring, len, slop, 'right') -> 'somestr... ' If you want to use default slop (default additional length), use undef as value for third parameter to chop_str. While at it, return from chop_str early if given string is so short that chop_str couldn't shorten it. Simplify also regexp used by chop_str. Make ellipsis (dots) stick to shortened fragment for cutting at ends, to better see which part got shortened. Simplify passing all arguments to chop_str in chop_and_escape_str subroutine. This was needed to pass additional options to chop_str.
