Subject: [PATCH 1/2] diff: demonstrate a bug with --patience and --ignore-space-at-eol
Date: Sat, 9 Jul 2016 09:23:50 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <db5aa5d1f22a22901eb3dd57132e027f462852c5.1468048754.git.johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1468048754.git.johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

When a single character is added to a line, the combination of these
two options results in an empty diff.

This bug was noticed and reported by Naja Melan.
