Hey @jingangdidi , thanks for the contribution.
The change in the logic is incorrect, if you revert that change we can merge the other change to the code doc
| 0 // Read from start if fewer than n lines | ||
| } else { | ||
| *newline_positions.get(line_count - n).unwrap_or(&0) + 1 | ||
| *newline_positions.get(n).unwrap_or(&0) + 1 |

This is an invalid change breaking the functionality of the TailFile.
For instance, if a file has 10 lines, and we want to get tail 2 , we need to return lines , starting from line index 8 , which is (line_count - n) = 10 - 2 = 8
If you run the tests on your branch, you will see the tests that will fail:
cargo test

yes, I know what you mean.
The newline_positions is reversed, so index 8 will get the eighth to last line, this will return line 3 and line 4, not line 9 and line10.
5 is a special number, so it can pass the test_tail_file_normal test, I add a new line.
| /// The path of the file to get information for. | ||
| pub path: String, | ||
| /// The number of lines to read from the beginning of the file. | ||
| /// The number of lines to read from the ending of the file. |
