Subject: 23.2.50; vc-annotate-show-log-revision-at-line yields empty buffer

I visited a file in a git working copy, and typed C-x v g to see the
"blame".  In the resulting buffer, I typed "l".  I saw (after a few
seconds) a *vc-change-log* buffer that was empty.  Naturally, I expected
that buffer to contain a single log message from git, corresponding to
the commit ID on the line on which I typed "l".

I think the problem is that the annotated buffer looks like this:

    ad470f08 lisp/vc-git.el   (Dan Nicolaescu      2007-07-22 19:46:04
+0000   1) ;;; vc-git.el --- VC backend for the git version control
system
    ad470f08 lisp/vc-git.el   (Dan Nicolaescu      2007-07-22 19:46:04
+0000   2)

... and that the regexp in vc-git-annotate-extract-revision-at-line
matches from the end of the commit ID, all the way up to (but not
including) the first left-paren.  So the file name being returned from
that function is "lisp/vc-git.el   ", including the trailing spaces.

The following patch fixes it for me:

    diff --git a/lisp/vc-git.el b/lisp/vc-git.el

Thanks, I checked in a similar patch to the emacs-23 branch.  It will
get merged to the trunk at some point.
