When using Prettier to auto-format (parts of) the code-base you usually end up with huge patches that touch lots of lines without making any actual changes.
This often adds unnecessary steps when using
git blame
, however it's easy enough to avoid this; please refer to https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/working-with-files/using-files/viewing-a-file#ignore-commits-in-the-blame-view
