Some of our recent changes (one of them being clang-format) will likely cause issues with commands such as git blame. With later versions of git, it's possible to collect all of the offending commits into a file and pass an argument to git blame to ignore them.

See https://www.moxio.com/blog/43/ignoring-bulk-change-commits-with-git-blame for more details.
