[1] git log and git blame are pretty impressive, but they don't quite 
catch that most of date.c was written by David as part of commit-tree.c, 
then Tony replaced it with a version that uses curl, then Edgar separated 
it out into a date.c and simultaneously reverted Tony's changes. On the 
other hand, the commit messages do say this, and you can use git log and 
git blame to verify that they're true. The only thing they don't let 
you verify is what the differences are between the date.c added in 
ecee9d9e and the similar part of commit-tree.c in 812666c8. If someone 
wants to make git blame *really* magic, date.c would be a good test case.

That's good to know.  I have in my head a super-duper blame that
I outlined in my obituary for git-annotate, but that is still a
vaporware and will continue to be for some time.
