Look into `--ignore-rev` + `.git-blame-ignore-revs` convention

• Does it work well for large revisions (e.g. formatting changes)
• Do our IDEs understand it

• It looks great for large formatting changes
• The convention is for GitHub: https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/working-with-files/using-files/viewing-a-file#ignore-commits-in-the-blame-view
• The hook script will set git config blame.ignoreRevsFile .git-blame-ignore-revs so that they are locally ignored automatically as well
• This also works great in IntelliJ, except that blames seem to be cached. Otherwise the view is the same as a plain git blame
