[PATCH v2] Require 0 context lines in git-blame algorithm

[PATCH v2] Require 0 context lines in git-blame algorithm

[David Kastrup]

Previously, the core part of git blame -M required 1 context line.
There is no rationale to be found in the code (one guess would be that
the old blame algorithm was unable to deal with immediately adjacent
regions), and it causes artifacts like discussed in the thread
<http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/255289/>.

<http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/295795>
sheds some more light on the history of the previous choice.
