The `.git-blame-ignore-revs` file can be used to ignore that (and will be [1]). Unfortunatly GitHub doesn't support it but at least it's possible to have clients behave in a reasonable way.

You can automate setup for developers using this simple script:

And here’s a GitLab issue requesting support for blame-ignore:

https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/31423

I don’t think there’s a corresponding GitHub request, but maybe if GitLab adds this feature GitHub will have some incentive to follow suit.
