Diff links position the line one beyond what I expect.  Here's a hunk at
<https://public-inbox.org/meta/20200509082738.23602-2-e@yhbt.net/>:

The link at "-71,11" is
<https://public-inbox.org/meta/4508bd84/s/?b=lib/PublicInbox/Eml.pm#n72>.
When I follow it, I'm taken to line 72, one line below the first context
line above.  I haven't been able to come up with a reason why +1 would
be preferable here, and I didn't spot any explanation when looking
around the code.  It looks like it'd just be a matter of making the
two-line change below, but perhaps that causes breakage that I didn't
notice with my light testing.

Good question, it's been that way since the beginning...

It might have been due to the "0" for new files and line numbers
counting starting at "1".  But hunks aren't hyperlinks for new files,
since the blob OID already is.

I'll probably take this patch, soon, got a commit message?
Given the massive change Eml is, 1.5.0 will probably be released, soon.

Sure.  Thanks.

Subject: [PATCH] viewdiff: don't increment the reported hunk line number

For a diff hunk starting at line N, diff_hunk() constructs the link
with "#n(N + 1)".  This sends the viewer one line below the first
context line.  Although this is minor and may not even be noticed,
there's not an obvious reason to increment the line number, so switch
to using the reported value as is.
