feat(cli): blame --ignore-rev/--ignore-revs-file (#2064)

[ali90h]

What

Add CLI support in gix blame:

• --ignore-rev <REV> (repeatable)
• --ignore-revs-file <PATH> (multiple, unioned; comments/blank lines/BOM/CRLF handled)

Why

Parity with git blame --ignore-rev, enabling users to exclude formatting/refactor commits when attributing lines. Tracks #2064.

How

• Parse flags into a HashSet<ObjectId> (de-duplicated).
• Resolve revs via repo (accepts full SHA and tags pointing to commits).
• Repo-root semantics for relative files: paths are resolved from the repository root, not CWD.
• Errors: invalid revs, non-commit objects, unreadable files, and ambiguous short SHAs.

Verification

Manual matrix (all green):

• Help shows both flags.
• Baseline re-attribution B→A matches git blame --ignore-rev.
• Files: comments/blank/BOM/CRLF accepted; duplicates de-duplicated; absolute + subdir paths OK.
• Tags that point to the ignored commit work.
• Errors produce actionable messages and non-zero exit codes.

Repro script excerpt:

cargo build -p gitoxide
GIX="$(pwd)/target/debug/gix"
"$GIX" blame -h | grep -- "--ignore-rev" && grep -- "--ignore-revs-file"

# Tiny repo: A -> B(reformat) -> C
# … create commits …
"$GIX" blame test.txt > /tmp/before
"$GIX" blame --ignore-rev "$B" test.txt > /tmp/after
diff -u /tmp/before /tmp/after   # first line re-attributed B→A

# Files, BOM/CRLF, union, repo-root semantics, tags, and error cases tested as documented.

Compatibility

• No behavior change when flags are absent.
• No MSRV bump.
• Scope limited to CLI (Phase-2). Phase-1 (library) is handled in PR feat(gix-blame): library support for ignore-rev (#2064) #2123.

CI note: The errors that appeared to have failed are due to: gix-url::issue2064_scp_username::*

that test file isn’t present on current upstream/main I’ve rebased onto the latest main and retriggered CI.

I wouldn't expect rebasing to affect the failures--and it doesn't seem to have affected them--because this PR itself introduces that test file in ali90h@c8bdddd.

Sorry, I'll check it out.

Just to set expectations: since this seems partly/mostly LLM-generated, this makes the PR harder to review, so it is probably going to take longer than if the code had been written by a human.

I hope it's okay that I've rebased to drop the second-to-last commit, f261c92. This was an intentionally empty commit, which had been pushed as a workaround to force CI to rerun (since GitHub Actions doesn't allow users without write access to rerun CI jobs whose workflows are triggered by the pull_request event). My understanding is that this extra empty commit is not needed anymore, especially since another commit has been added after it.

If for any reason this change has to be undone, that can be achieved by force-pushing the branch back to 4ee51e3, where it was before.

I've noticed that gix-blame::ignore_revisions_perf zero_cost_abstraction_verification failed. But this is a performance test, and I suspect this is an intermittent failure due to random fluctuations in how long things take, rather than a new problem introduced by removing the empty commit. Maybe the test should be adjusted, or the performance of the code it seeks to test optimized further. For now, I'll try to rerun the failing test to see if it passes next time.

I feel like this PR has taken enough maintenance time as is and would appreciate if no more lines would be added to it.As initial verdict: it seems bloated for what it tries to accomplish and the original author of gix-blame is already looking into how Git is doing it. Based on that outcome we will know if the approach taken here is correct to begin with.
Thanks for your understanding.

Thanks @EliahKagan for cleaning up the empty commit and reruns.
