Alexey just doesn't like whitespace patches.

Whitespace patches don't really "screw up" git blame.

git blame displays the current version of a file
with line-by-line commits and the date each line
was last modified.

So whitespace changes make it harder to find which patch
introduced the last logical change for a particular line.

A more interactive git blame with history backtracking
might help keep Alexey happier but who knows for sure...
