Thank you for that advice, my intention behind this line is to make clear,
which part of the text was changed. I found this often useful when the
commit diff contains a lot of text and the change is very very small
(like adding a missing letter 's'), because in that case the reviewer
would have to read the whole line again to find that error.
Do you think it is beneficial when the reviewer has to spot the error on his own?
