The surrounding context (with authorship and some whitespace snipped, obviously it's always the same) is
2ad223ae (124) 2ad223ae (125) // Pass along a fake event 2ad223ae (126) data.unshift( this.fix({ type: type, target: element }) ); 2ad223ae (127) 2ad223ae (128) // Trigger the event 2ad223ae (129) if ( (val = this.handle.apply( element, data )) !== false ) 2ad223ae (130) this.triggered = true;

And indeed, running
git show -U0 2ad223ae -- src/event/event.js
in your repository gives a hunk
@@ -108,11 +123,8 @@ jQuery.event = {
- var handler = element["on" + type ], val,

So I would tend to agree with the blame implementation. If anything
it's a bug in git-diff when not using any context.
Do you have a reproduction recipe that exhibits the flaw on a
non-whitespace line? I'm not up to speed on the diff implementation
(maybe someone else can help?), but I wouldn't be too surprised if it
had heuristics that put lines consisting only of whitespace at a lower
importance than "actual" lines.
