It shows you the file split into sections indicating what commit was responsible for that section&amp;#x27;s lines. Doing `C-x g b` on one of those sections visits the file at that commit  and does git blame again without needing to `checkout` that commit. I wish I knew how to be as effective doing that with `git blame` on the shell. Is there a way to provide the commit to `git blame` without needing to `checkout`?</text><parent_chain><item><author>nickbarnwell</author><text>If you&amp;#x27;re an emacs user, I can&amp;#x27;t recommend magit [1] enough. I was a diehard CLI user and had flags and aliases out the wazoo, and it was still a step change in usabilty and power for me. Staging hunks, rebasing, and stashing are all vastly easier. Amending or editing a commit is a breeze, and it&amp;#x27;s tied in to all of the other emacs tools you already use, e.g. org-mode to boot!&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#x27;s easier to see it in action than explain it.
