`-L<start>,<end>:<file>`::
`-L:<funcname>:<file>`::
Trace the evolution of the line range given by `<start>,<end>`,
or by the function name regex _<funcname>_, within the _<file>_. You may
not give any pathspec limiters. This is currently limited to
a walk starting from a single revision, i.e., you may only
give zero or one positive revision arguments, and
_<start>_ and _<end>_ (or _<funcname>_) must exist in the starting revision.
You can specify this option more than once. Implies `--patch`.
Patch output can be suppressed using `--no-patch`, but other diff formats
(namely `--raw`, `--numstat`, `--shortstat`, `--dirstat`, `--summary`,
`--name-only`, `--name-status`, `--check`) are not currently implemented.
+
Patch formatting options such as `--word-diff`, `--color-moved`,
`--no-prefix`, and whitespace options (`-w`, `-b`) are supported,
as are pickaxe options (`-S`, `-G`).
