Add toggle for ignoring whitespace changes in the Blame dialog

[seandstewart]

Hey there -

My team recently rolled out auto-formatting for our code base and as a result there are quite a few whitespace changes that are noise in the git blame, however there is a documented option -w which will ignore these types of changes.

Would it be possible to add a toggle allowing this? Or perhaps add a text field to allow passing in arbitrary command-line args?

Hi, I cannot do that for built-in blame functionality but it's enabled there by default. If you open Git > Annotate you have context menu on gutter annotations and it's enabled - at least for me :)

My inline blame already uses -w

Please provide example that illustrated the issue.

this seems like a duplicate of #3

can confirm @zielu -s Git → Annotate: On → gutter rightclick → options: ☑ Ignore Whitespaces

tested with newest IDEA
