FWIW, I didn't find it odd or surprising that the "(new +x)" is part
of the link, and its color clearly indicates that it is part of the
link.

I haven't yet noticed that all the spaces following the filename are
clickable as well, because they don't look like part of the link
(well, being spaces, they don't have any color...), and haven't
noticed the cursor changing shape when hovering over them.

I'm not so sure about this, and think that it can be
confusing/undesired in some circumstances.  A user can click on any
"inactive" part of the browser window (i.e. what isn't a link, a
button, or any active GUI widget) to focus and raise the window
without any other effects, so they might just happen to click on
those unsuspicious spaces because they don't look like a link, and
then be surprised when the page jumps to corresponding diff.

Btw, I'm not sure if the "(new +x)" and all the surrounding
spaces should be clickable.  I have poor coordination, so when I
(rarely) use a mouse I prefer bigger targets to click; but maybe
it can get confusing...

Glad you noticed this feature :)  I keep forgetting to do more
work on it (fixing interdiffs and such), and also writing
automated tests to catch it.

Thanks for the bug report.  The following should fix it,
it's also deployed on public-inbox.org

Subject: [PATCH] viewdiff: do not anchor using diffstat comments

Diffstat summary comments were added to git last year and
we need to filter them out to get anchors working properly.
