Sounds like a good idea. There=E2=80=99s no particular convention regardin= g the file name of =E2=80=98.git-blame-ignore-revs=E2=80=99, right? > It seems like a maintainable way to mitigate some of the (IMO) major > disadvantages that we bring in by applying bulk changes. The disadvantage of changes is that they introduce changes, indeed. :-) But really, I think we should be able to find relevant hints as comments and use VCS history more as a last resort. Thanks, Ludo=E2=80=99.
