This cleans up 'git blame' by automatically skipping commits that just reformatted code using clang-format. The name of the ignore- file isn't standard, but it seems to be the convention. To use this, you'll have to adapt your checkout's git config, by running the following commands from within your local checkout: git config --local blame.ignoreRevsFile src/configs/git-blame-ignore-revs git config --local blame.markIgnoredLines true The first config enables the usage of the ignore file by default, the second one marks blame-lines with a '?' if they skipped one or more commits.

git blame(alsotig blameor VSCode's GitLens annotations) by automatically skipping commits that just reformatted code using clang-format. The name of the ignore-file isn't standard, but it seems to be the convention across the community.Leaving this as a "Draft" for now. I personally just learnt about this feature, and find it super useful (worthy of a new top-level file 😏)To use this, you'll have to adapt your git config like so:
git config --local blame.ignoreRevsFile src/configs/git-blame-ignore-revs git config --local blame.markIgnoredLines trueThe first config enables the usage of the ignore file by default, the second one marks blame-lines with a '?' if they skipped one or more commits.
