I see neither of the fix nor the fixed commit ? This is on a Debian 10.3 with git version 2.20.1
It does not seem to be a rename issue - so I'm a bit lost on this one Is this a wrong expectation on my side - or am I using git in some wrong way here ?
In this case it seems there is a function __get_fs_type earlier in the file that gets matched instead: static struct file_system_type *__get_fs_type(const char *name, int len) { ... } struct file_system_type *get_fs_type(const char *name) { ... } You can try for example: $ git log -L ':[*]get_fs_type:fs/filesystems.c' fs/filesystems.c | grep ^commit $ git log -L ':[^_]get_fs_type:fs/filesystems.c' fs/filesystems.c | grep ^commit $ git log -L ':\bget_fs_type:fs/filesystems.c' fs/filesystems.c | grep ^commit commit 26c5d78c976ca298e59a56f6101a97b618ba3539 commit 41124db869b7e00e12052555f8987867ac01d70c commit 7f78e0351394052e1a6293e175825eb5c7869507 commit d8e9650dff48055057253ca30933605bd7d0733b commit 79c0b2df79eb56fc71e54c75cd7fb3acf84370f9 commit 1da177e4c3f41524e886b7f1b8a0c1fc7321cac2 -- Valentin
