Heh, yes, very much so :). I probably shouldof known there is such an
option, but having the source at hand the change to '%4d' was the
first thing that came to mind.

Since that wouldof put the 'number one' at the top? Yeah, I guess it
wouldof, nice one.

Correct, I probably should have explain that. The +es are how many
lines were added and the -es are the total amount of lines that were
deleted, yup.

Yeah, I wish 'git log -C -C -M --numstat --sacrifice-chicken
--pretty=format:%ae --' would take care of that... That is, a
git-blame like mechanism that would detect such moves on a per-commit
basis and report them would be very useful to me.

*chuckles*, I'm curious why the Makefile is such a hard file to get right :).

Very much so, but the former I figure can be easily done with 'git log
-C -C -M' I discovered (I need to parse it's output though, and also
determine what to do with moves statistics wise. Should changes made
due to moves just be ignored?)

That sounds interesting, I won't need to actually do that though, I
already have a diff parser that gives me the lines added VS lines
deleted on a hunk-by-hunk basis. If it is a true move (e.g., code
removed in file X and added in file Y) it should be trivial to detect
that.
Something along the lines of:
for hunk in added:
  if hunk in deleted:
    print("Over here!!")

Much appreciated! I will look into this.
