> The command "git log --numstat c21ad764ea1bae7f7bd83b5e2cb015dcbc44d586" shows for the commit c21ad764 and file '.../readonly/mr/HadoopStoreBuilderReducer.java' 25 lines added and 22 lines removed. But the patch of HadoopStoreBuilderReducer.java that I get with "git show c21ad764ea1bae7f7bd83b5e2cb015dcbc44d586 -- contrib/hadoop-store-builder/src/java/voldemort/store/readonly/mr/HadoopStoreBuilderReducer.java" adds 30 lines and removes 27.
