Hi,

this blame-passing thing really looks very promising and powerful.

Another blame-passing heuristic would be very interesting for code:
"Ignore white-space changes".
This way, commits which only do some reindentations simply are skipped.

It looks like such a thing would just be a matter of passing "-b" to
executions of "diff" in the blame-passing algorithm.
