This question relates to assignment P2. If the string “I love COMP2017 forever” is inserted and committed, then bold markers are inserted to surround “COMP2017” while “COMP2017 forever” is deleted at a later timestamped edit targeting the same version, what does the final result look like when everything is committed?

Question restatement and data gaps:
- The prompt asks about a specific version-control scenario: inserting the string “I love COMP2017 forever” and committing, then applying a later timestamped edit that inserts bold markers around “COMP2017” and deletes the substring “COMP2017 forever” at the same version, followed by a final commit. The implied final display is described as “I love ****”.
- However, the provided data shows an empty set of answer options (answer_options is an empty list). Without concrete distractors or alternative results to compare against, we cannot evaluate which option correctly matches the described scenario.

Analysis of the scenario itself (independent of choices):
- Step 1: Insertion and commit of the original string would produce a file content containing exactly: I love COMP2017 forever, with the substring COMP2017 surrounded by bold markers in the commit history or diff context depending on how bold is represented in this system.
- Step 2: A later timestamped edit targeting the same version that replaces the substring with bold markers around COMP2017 and deletes the rest (“COMP2017 forever”) suggests the edit trims the line so that only a bolded reference to COMP2017 remains, while the trailing text is removed.
- Step 3: The final committed state would reflect the removal of the non-bolded substring and the introduction of bold markers around COMP2017, resulting in a line that shows the remaining content as I love with the bolded token in place. If the representation of bold is shown as **** in plain text, that would appear as I love ****.

Why we can’t judge wrong options here:
- The absence of answer options prevents us from identifying incorrect reasoning or contrasting alternative final states.
- Since only a single proposed final result (“I love ****”) is provided in the answer field, but there are no alternative choices to critique, we cannot fulfill the requirement to analyze each option for correctness or misconception.

What to consider if options were present in a complete question:
- An option that shows I love COMP2017 forever would be incorrect, because the later edit deletes that portion.
- An option that shows I love **COMP2017** or I love **** would be correct depending on how bold markers are represented in the output, but only if it matches the described deletes and bold insertion.
- An option that retains any portion of the original trailing text after forever would be incorrect, given that the edit’s instruction is to delete the substring “COMP2017 forever.”

In summary, due to the missing answer options, a full option-by-option critique cannot be completed. The described final state, when shown in plain text as I love ****, aligns with the provided single answer depiction, but without explicit alternatives, we cannot declare a designated correct option or discuss why others are wrong within the required option-by-option structure.
