Hello,

Git versions tested: 2.13.6, 2.1.4

When passing-in a large context value for the --unified option for
git-diff, Git will produce an invalid-looking range information for
hunks.

For example, if running 'git diff --unified=10 HEAD^', the output will
include (this is just a run against my local git repo):

@@ -42,23 +42,23 @@ master_doc = 'index'

Note the numbers for denoting begin/end line etc "look fine"(they're
within the expected numeric range).

Now, if we pass on a big value to it (2 to the power of 32 divided by 2,
e.g. enough so that signed long int can't hold it without overflowing),
e.g. 'git diff --unified=2147483648 HEAD^', the output will include
(again, just a sample):

@@ -2147483700,4294967295- +2147483700,4294967295- @@

Note that the begin/end line numbers are way out of range. The diff
itself will actually contain no context lines.

Best regards
