> Even if you're _very good_ at Git, finding the correct invocation of "git blame" (is it "-w -C -C -C"? Or just _two_ dash C's?) to even find the right messages
I am terrible at git on the terminal, but with IntelliJ or emacs and magit, I can trivially find every commit ever to change a file, and easily navigate the commits to see every full commit message. It's not hard when you use a proper tool, and I have a feeling almost everyone has something like that?! Do you really try to stick with the git CLI and memorize hundreds of commands and flags?? Why?!
