Yes, that's probably a better form for the commit message.

Right, I'm not sure why I put the ( on the previous line.

Good idea, I'll rework it in that sense.

And these are matched by the above regexp

I'm afraid I'm not going to support that, although it's probably easy
to support hpb:fp..:f (i.e. accept a missing refname but on condition
of having a : in front of the file spec).

By the way, on the first revision of the path_info patchset, you had me discard

$hash      ||= git_get_hash_by_path($hash_base, $file_name);

in the simple case on the basis that it was an extra call to external git.

I actually forgot to remove it from this part of the patchset too at
the time, so this gets me wondering about this: should I put it back
in place in the simple case, or remove it from here too?
