Currently, the git diff hunk headers show the wrong method signature if the method has a generic return type because the regex doesn't allow < and > in the return type. This patch adds those.
Bug repro: In a repository with .gitattributes containing "*.java diff=java" and a java file
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
class MyExample {
public void firstMethod() {
// Whatever...
} public List<Integer> secondMethod() {
// Here is some comment,
// and here is more,
// and here is even more,
// followed by this,
// and that,
// and even more.
return Arrays.asList(1, 2, 3, 4, 5);
}
}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---when adding the number 6 to the Arrays.asList() call in secondMethod(), the git diff one gets is
