338486 - If a line in a diff starts with "--" that line is hidden

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 233695

(Bugzilla :: Attachments & Requests, defect)

Description

[Håkan Waara]

When making diffs for code written in Objective C, we often get diffs with double minus signs, like this:

+ // do something evil
+ // to fix bug X
--(void) doSomething;
+-(void) doSomething:(int)withThis;

We've noticed that the -- will hide that line, when viewing the diff "visually" in bugzilla. This is quite bad when you're reviewing someone's code and that line is important... :-)

Yeah, we've known this for a while. I think there's a dup somewhere, but I didn't find it just on a casual look.

Same issue as bug 233695. ++ and -- are incorrectly displayed.
