When I use git blame, a very time-spending situation is that the file has been renamed for many times, the blame will point me to the SHA of the recent rename commit. I then need to blame on the rename version, if the file has been renamed multiple times, I need to blame multiple times.
What I need to find with blame is the real author of a line of code when it is first written. Commit of git mv is not what I am looking for
Is there a way to let blame go beyond the renaming commits?
Or at least, is there a git command that can directly list how many times a file has been renamed? With this history I can manually bisect to find the appropriate version to blame, instead of go all the way from end to beginning.
