2 Show blank SHA-1 for boundary commits. This can also
3 be controlled via the `blame.blankboundary` config option.
6 Do not treat root commits as boundaries. This can also be
7 controlled via the `blame.showroot` config option.
10 Include additional statistics at the end of blame output.
12 -L <start>,<end>, -L :<regex>::
13 Annotate only the given line range. <start> and <end> can take
16 include::line-range-format.txt[]
19 Show long rev (Default: off).
22 Show raw timestamp (Default: off).
25 Use revisions from revs-file instead of calling linkgit:git-rev-list[1].
28 Walk history forward instead of backward. Instead of showing
29 the revision in which a line appeared, this shows the last
30 revision in which a line has existed. This requires a range of
31 revision like START..END where the path to blame exists in
36 Show in a format designed for machine consumption.
39 Show the porcelain format, but output commit information for
40 each line, not just the first time a commit is referenced.
44 Show the result incrementally in a format designed for
47 --encoding=<encoding>::
48 Specifies the encoding used to output author names
49 and commit summaries. Setting it to `none` makes blame
50 output unconverted data. For more information see the
51 discussion about encoding in the linkgit:git-log[1]
55 When <rev> is not specified, the command annotates the
56 changes starting backwards from the working tree copy.
57 This flag makes the command pretend as if the working
58 tree copy has the contents of the named file (specify
59 `-` to make the command read from the standard input).
62 The value is one of the following alternatives:
63 {relative,local,default,iso,rfc,short}. If --date is not
64 provided, the value of the blame.date config variable is
65 used. If the blame.date config variable is also not set, the
66 iso format is used. For more information, See the discussion
67 of the --date option at linkgit:git-log[1].
70 Detect moved or copied lines within a file. When a commit
71 moves or copies a block of lines (e.g. the original file
72 has A and then B, and the commit changes it to B and then
73 A), the traditional 'blame' algorithm notices only half of
74 the movement and typically blames the lines that were moved
75 up (i.e. B) to the parent and assigns blame to the lines that
76 were moved down (i.e. A) to the child commit. With this
77 option, both groups of lines are blamed on the parent by
78 running extra passes of inspection.
80 <num> is optional but it is the lower bound on the number of
81 alphanumeric characters that Git must detect as moving/copying
82 within a file for it to associate those lines with the parent
83 commit. The default value is 20.
86 In addition to `-M`, detect lines moved or copied from other
87 files that were modified in the same commit. This is
88 useful when you reorganize your program and move code
89 around across files. When this option is given twice,
90 the command additionally looks for copies from other
91 files in the commit that creates the file. When this
92 option is given three times, the command additionally
93 looks for copies from other files in any commit.
95 <num> is optional but it is the lower bound on the number of
96 alphanumeric characters that Git must detect as moving/copying
97 between files for it to associate those lines with the parent
98 commit. And the default value is 40. If there are more than one
99 `-C` options given, the <num> argument of the last `-C` will
