I remember that long time ago on git mailing list there was discussed extending git-apply and friends (including git-am), to be able to ignore lines in patches with selected special prefix, different from '@' for chunks headers, ' ' for context, '+'/'-' for added/deleted lines. IIRC it was chose '|' for this purpose.

This way you could annotate patch

                              esc_html($lineno));
                print "</td>";


Was it accepted or dropped, or is this feature present but not 
documented?
