> One interesting side effect is that I changed the most number of lines of code company wide that year and got my name on the "blame" for most of the JavaScript files that existed at that time. So over the years I kept getting random people or scripts pinging me about code I had no idea about!

Not sure who needs to hear this, but in case anyone runs into this problem, you can create a list of commit hashes that `git blame` will ignore. Commit all of your formatting changes in one push and then put its hash in the ignore file.

This feature was created as a direct response to automated formatters like Prettier!
