Hi! The org-mode repository at git://repo.or.cz/org-mode.git has history that looks like this: o--o--o--o-------------------M--F--o-- .. --o master / / A--o-- .. --o--o-------------o--o--B--C--X--D where commits A, B, C, D, and F all modify lines with 'org-publish-validate-link'. M is a merge commit and X has an empty log message. $ git checkout 8ea076e2de2b3721bd813ea5a2df1b53d0c25055 # commit F $ git log -Sorg-publish-validate-link reports 3 commits F, A, and something earlier than A Commits B, C, and D are not included in the git log -S output even though with gitk you can see that 'org-publish-validate-link' is in the patch. Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug? $ git --version git version 1.6.0.3.523.g304d0 I've marked the commits in column one below. $ git log --pretty=oneline F 8ea076e2de2b3721bd813ea5a2df1b53d0c25055 Updated org-publish.el (now version 1.8 e322abfd14267a154a06deb1e7ef5a432b17f68a Merge branch 'add-recursion-to-org-publ 6208fb43cb1bbab852560cf506c7d12674307492 Minor docstring fix. df54646ab324b11e99279dc0b6dfa161a1c72c7d Fixed the Timeline node.
