Somebody may want to compare git-blame.txt and git-annotate.txt in
Documentation/, notice that they share blame-options.txt and that the
former has accumulated option descriptions for a few more options that
should have been placed in blame-options.txt, and then prepare a patch to
improve the documentation?  Hint, hint...

I *think* '-c', '-f', and '-n' are blame-only options but all others would
work with annotate (whoever is doing the patch needs to verify this,
though).
