When the output of
git blameis parsed some of the data is missed. Each line of output fromgit blameis split on spaces, however if the line of output has more than one space then everything after the second space is missed. For example if the author name contains a space:The author name in live blame will only show "John", not "John Smith".
This change updates the parsing so that everything after the first whitespace in a line is considered the full value of that field.
The check for
nilis needed so we properly ignore the last line ofgit blameoutput, which the text from the line in the file preceded by a tab.
