In this version, we support multiple ranges from multiple files. Anybody interested at it can try it with something like:
git log -L /assign_range_to_parent/,/^}/ line.c or
git log -L diff-range /assign_range_to_parent/,/^}/ line.c to get a more detail history of how the lines evolved into such a state after fixing several bugs, or
git log diff-range -L /assign_range_to_parent/,/^}/ -L /cleanup/,/^}/ line.c to see when cleanup() function come into sceen.

We use a line number calculating method to find out the pre-image line range from the post-image line range. The algorithm is all in the map_lines function and I think the function is self-documenting. :)

For merge commit, we pass the line range to all of its parents and let these ranges change along each branch and combine again later when we encounter the splitting commit. This is because, if we keep the range non-split, we can give more context to users and make the output more meaningful.  So I chagne the original idea that to split the ranges at a merge commit. :)

I have also test some run on the Linux kernel source code. The tool is a little slow in the kernel repository, but it always give the correct history. :)

Feel free to post any criticism/advice to me!
