Also I wonder if this one Documentation/git-log.txt:156

    git log -L '/int main/',/^}/:main.c

should be more like one of these:

    git log -L '/int main/,/^}/':main.c
    git log -L '/int main/,/^}/:main.c'

I find it somewhat hard to spot the closing sq in the middle of a
string.
There's a distinct advantage to keeping the sq before the colon, at
least in my config (and I think I haven't changed the defaults as far as
this goes): bash will try to complete a filename if you type

  git log -L '...':mai<TAB>

but not if you instead do

  git log -L '...:'mai<TAB>
Interesting.
