For example for the following header
diff --git _a/gitweb/gitweb.perl_ _b/gitweb/gitweb.perl_
index _cbab3c9_.._a5a140c_ 100755
--- a/_gitweb/gitweb.perl_
+++ b/_gitweb/gitweb.perl_
@@ _-1255,9_ _+1255,12_ @@ sub parse_difftree_raw_line {
The '-1255,9' would be link to older version of gitweb/gitweb.perl file,
directly to the line #1255 (or to first changed line, or to the middle
of the chunk i.e. 1255+9/2 line).
The '+1255,12' would be link to newer version of file, to line 1255.
