I had trouble constructing a test at first, but I think my test lines
just weren't long enough to trigger the movement heuristics. If I switch
to something besides seq, I can do:
# any input that has reasonably sized lines
look e | head -50 >file
git add file
perl -i -ne '
# pick up lines 20-25 to move to line 40, and
# add some trailing whitespace to them
if ($. >= 20 && $. <= 25) {
s/$/ /;
$hold .= $_;
} else {
print $hold if ($. == 40);
print;
}
' file
git diff --color-moved --ignore-space-at-eol
I think that _should_ show the block as moved, but it doesn't. But if I
apply this patch:

it does. It just adjusts our "end pointer" to point to the last valid
character in the string (rather than one past), which seems to be the
convention that those loops (and next_byte) expect.
