Is there a minimum git version for this to work? It doesn't seem to
work for me.
... ah, apparently one needs git 2.23:
https://www.moxio.com/blog/43/ignoring-bulk-change-commits-with-git-blame
I have 2.20.
[ apt install -t buster-backports git ]
I have 2.30. It works better. To be clear: some lines still appear as
originating in some pgindent commit, when they are created by such a
commit. But as far as I've seen, they're mostly uninteresting ones
(whitespace, only braces, only "else", only "for (;;)" and similar).
The git blame experience seems much better. Thanks!
