Hi Olivier!

Sorry, these options are not planned to be included in the v4 release.

Right now, the only planned modification to blame will be fixing the performance problems described in https://github.com/alcortesm/git-diff-tree-benchmarks. As you can see, our main focus now is making simple blames faster.

PR are welcome though: if you want more complicated diffs/blames, we will happily add them to our code base, as long as simple blames remain fast.

Cool, thanks for the fast response. Follow-up question regarding git blame (not sure if it really warrants a separate issue) - BlameResult is of type []*line. Further, line is:

type line struct {
	author string
	text   string
}

I'm trying to access the name of the author for a specific line, but it's all private. Is there a specific reason why it was designed this way? I'm only getting started with Go, so I might be missing something here.

line and its fields are private because we are not using them right now for anything and we try to keep the API as small as possible.

But of course, you are rigth, they should be public if we want to use them for anything useful.

#213 fixes this.

Wonderful, thanks!
