How is that? It seams to me that git log <path> will show only commits
where <path> was changed/committed? Considering the fact that I've got
the initial path from the blob, i should get the exact commit history
(or last commit in my example) for the file(s) (Files if renaming
occurred without content change).

The blob is present in each commit since it was introduced. Except
when your project contains only that one blob, isn't the state of
the other parts of an interest?

I would question this statement. It seems to me that hash of the file
content is logged only for the commit when it was touched.
Therefore there is very limited amount of actual commits where the
same hash can be met.

git rev-list HEAD | while read sha; do git ls-tree $sha; done | grep <blob-sha>
