I think the "Sigh." can come across as passive aggressive and is
unhelpful.

Anyway, there's nothing stopping us maintaining a .git-blame-ignore-revs
file at the root of the repo which contains commits to be ignored for
the purposes of `git blame`. git has to be configured to use it (the
filename isn't special / automatically recognised) but that's not a big
deal.
