I've noticed that trying to come up with a solution tonight.  I'll
look at it some more tomorrow.  If you can't tell the difference
between added and changed then there would be no easy way to mark a
line as ignored either.

If the changes get split fine enough could you tell that blame_ent
doesn't exist in a parent commit?

Thanks,

Dylan
