## Git blame
44-
45-
This project has big commits in the history which touch most files while only doing stylistic changes. To improve the output of git-blame, consider setting:
46-
47-
```shell
48-
git config blame.ignoreRevsFile .git-blame-ignore-revs
49-
```
50-
51-
This will ignore all revisions mentioned in the [`.git-blame-ignore-revs`
52-
file](./.git-blame-ignore-revs). GitHub does this by default.

## Code style
55-
56-
The code is formatted using [clang-format](https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangFormat.html). Our configuration is found in the [.clang-format](.clang-format) file in the repository root directory.
