This can also + be controlled via the `blame.blankboundary` config option. + +--root:: + Do not treat root commits as boundaries. This can also be + controlled via the `blame.showroot` config option. + +--show-stats:: + Include additional statistics at the end of blame output. + +-L <start>,<end>:: + Annotate only the given line range. <start> and <end> can take + one of these forms: + + - number ++ +If <start> or <end> is a number, it specifies an +absolute line number (lines count from 1). ++ + +- /regex/ ++ +This form will use the first line matching the given +POSIX regex. If <end> is a regex, it will search +starting at the line given by <start>. ++ + +- +offset or -offset ++ +This is only valid for <end> and will specify a number +of lines before or after the line given by <start>. ++ + +-l:: + Show long rev (Default: off). + +-t:: + Show raw timestamp (Default: off). + +-S <revs-file>:: + Use revisions from revs-file instead of calling linkgit:git-rev-list[1]. + +--reverse:: + Walk history forward instead of backward. Instead of showing + the revision in which a line appeared, this shows the last + revision in which a line has existed. This requires a range of + revision like START..END where the path to blame exists in + START. + +-p:: +--porcelain:: + Show in a format designed for machine consumption. + +--line-porcelain:: + Show the porcelain format, but output commit information for + each line, not just the first time a commit is referenced. + Implies --porcelain. + +--incremental:: + Show the result incrementally in a format designed for + machine consumption. + +--encoding=<encoding>:: + Specifies the encoding used to output author names + and commit summaries. Setting it to `none` makes blame + output unconverted data. For more information see the + discussion about encoding in the linkgit:git-log[1] + manual page. + +--contents <file>:: + When <rev> is not specified, the command annotates the + changes starting backwards from the working tree copy. + This flag makes the command pretend as if the working + tree copy has the contents of the named file (specify + `-` to make the command read from the standard input). + +--date <format>:: + The value is one of the following alternatives: + {relative,local,default,iso,rfc,short}. If --date is not + provided, the value of the blame.date config variable is + used. If the blame.date config variable is also not set, the + iso format is used. For more information, See the discussion + of the --date option at linkgit:git-log[1]. + +-M|<num>|:: + Detect moved or copied lines within a file. When a commit + moves or copies a block of lines (e.g. the original file + has A and then B, and the commit changes it to B and then + A), the traditional 'blame' algorithm notices only half of + the movement and typically blames the lines that were moved + up (i.e. B) to the parent and assigns blame to the lines that + were moved down (i.e. A) to the child commit. With this + option, both groups of lines are blamed on the parent by + running extra passes of inspection. ++ +<num> is optional but it is the lower bound on the number of +alphanumeric characters that Git must detect as moving/copying +within a file for it to associate those lines with the parent +commit. The default value is 20. + +-C|<num>|:: + In addition to `-M`, detect lines moved or copied from other + files that were modified in the same commit. This is + useful when you reorganize your program and move code + around across files. When this option is given twice, + the command additionally looks for copies from other + files in the commit that creates the file. When this + option is given three times, the command additionally + looks for copies from other files in any commit. ++ +<num> is optional but it is the lower bound on the number of +alphanumeric characters that Git must detect as moving/copying +between files for it to associate those lines with the parent +commit. And the default value is 40. If there are more than one +`-C` options given, the <num> argument of the last `-C` will +take effect. + +-h:: + Show help message. |
