I wonder if it would make sense to have a flag or mode or something where 
boundary commit attributions are simply left unattributed (ie just leave 
that _empty_).

Same goes for some way of telling git blame that the root commit is 
uninteresting (it's a "boundary commit by definition" in the import case).

For the kernel, when I do a "git blame" on a file, if it gets blamed on 
the root commit, it really isn't a valid blame line at all - I'd prefer to 
have it show up as "no blame" rather than have it show up as being blamed 
on a specific commit of mine.

(But that would be true only for a _real_ root, not the pseudo-"root" that 
comes from stopping commit tracing due to the file not existing in any of 
the parents).

Hmm?
