I think the question is whether completely empty lines are also ignored by Python, or if they start a new block of code. Whatever the case, it must hold true for both 2.3 and 2.4.

see

	http://www.python.org/doc/2.3.5/ref/blank-lines.html
	http://www.python.org/doc/2.4.2/ref/blank-lines.html


So in essence, a multi-line statement is closed when a completely empty line is found, which means that making git internals recognize and strip such lines will result in Python code never being manageable by git.
