Bypassing .git-blame-ignore-revs
in the blame view
If the blame view for a file shows Ignoring revisions in .git-blame-ignore-revs, you can still bypass .git-blame-ignore-revs
and see the normal blame view. In the URL, append a ~
to the SHA and the Ignoring revisions in .git-blame-ignore-revs banner will disappear.
