I noticed that when a filter is applied to the timeline (such as ‘parent 
current’), AND the –p option is used to filter for a specific file, then the –n 
option (implicit or explicit) seems to count entries towards the limit 
regardless of whether these are displayed or not.  The result is you pretty 
much have to guess what number to use to get enough entries displayed.

To see what I’m talking about try the following with the sqlite3 repo:

fossil tim -p src\shell.c p current

(I think –n defaults to 20.) I get just 1 entry.  Now try:

fossil tim -p src\shell.c p current -n 50

I get just 4 entries.  But with –n 0 (unlimited) I get 885.

This happens with at least v1.36 [65e69b8dd8] and v1.37 [6f3ec1bef6].

Thanks
