Richard, at which view is this bad link present? Err... never mind, I see that
gitweb uses link to 'commitdiff' view with 'hash_parent' parameter set only
..in two places (well, perhaps there are some which get hash_parent from
-replay, but I doubt it): the "commit" view (link to each parent commit)
and in "commitdiff" view for octopus merges (e.g. "pu" in git.git).
The problem is not with ?hp=parenthash, but with /somehash part, which
somehow got invalid (from the error message). I have checked using
http://repo.or.cz/git.git, and while it has the bug (i.e. uses '?hp=...' instead
of path_info), there is no "400 - Invalid has parameter" error.

Actually, the correct path_info based URI would be
http://somedomain/somerepo.git/commitdiff/parenthash..somehashJust like href() does with hash_parent_base and hash_base for blobdiff.
Urgh... href() is a bit of mess, now I see it when I am not current.

That's correct: the unstated rule of href is that if it went into path_info,
it is deleted (not everything can be expressed with path_info), the rest
goes into query parameters. So without deleting the element, it would
be duplicated.
Note that using query parameter when we can use path_info is a minor
error; URL should work anyway (and I don't see why it doesn't - somewhat
the 'hash' parameter got incorrect...).

I'm sorry, I didn't notice it was meant for me. Simple "Jakub,..."
would be enough.

Only this made me realize that you are expecting *my* response.

This should read _something_ like this
+ if (defined $params{'hash_parent'}) {
+ $href .=
esc_path_info($params{'hash_parent'}) . '..';
+ delete $params{'hash_parent'};
+ }
+ $href .= esc_path_info($params{'hash'});
+ delete $params{'hash'};
Otherwise you would get correct link in your situation with
bad 'hash' parameter, but not the view that was requested;
it would not be diff between current and given parent, but
commitdiff for parent (to grandparent(s)).
Richard, thanks for finding a problematic thing, but you
need to search more for a true fix.
