range-diff: left-pad patch numbers

dscho · gitster · commit d1f87a2d9c48 · 2018-08-13T10:44:52.000-07:00
As pointed out by Elijah Newren, tbdiff has this neat little alignment trick where it outputs the commit pairs with patch numbers that are padded to the maximal patch number's width: 1: cafedead = 1: acefade first patch [...] 314: beefeada < 314: facecab up to PI! Let's do the same in range-diff, too. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
