 File checked into the FreeRTOS-Kernel repository use unix-style LF line endings
 for the best compatibility with git.
 
 For optimal compatibility with Microsoft Windows tools, it is best to enable
 the git autocrlf feature. You can enable this setting for the current
 repository using the following command:

 Some commits in this repository perform large refactors which touch many lines
 and lead to unwanted behavior when using the `git blame` command. You can
 configure git to ignore the list of large refactor commits in this repository
 with the following command:

 ```
 git config blame.ignoreRevsFile .git-blame-ignore-revs
 ```
 
 ### Spelling and Formatting
