`-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.
