I agree -- peeling down to the commit is good.

I would expect user errors to be more likely with --ignore-rev and
interactive use (command line typos). I see how aborting if the
referenced commit doesn't exists can help, and it's consistent with
other options that require a revision name.
I don't know how most people use --ignore-revs-file, but can imagine
a big bin of boring commits that is just appended to. Having to
keep that file clean by removing commits from abandoned and garbage-
collected branches sounds like unnecessary busy-work to me. (What
can I say -- I'm lazy.)

Using a commit flag instead of an oidset would only improve
performance noticeably if the product of the number of suspects and
ignored commits was huge, I guess.
I get weird timings for an ignore file containing basically all commits
(created with "git log --format=%H"). With Git's own repo and rc1:
Benchmark #1: ./git-blame --ignore-revs-file hashes Makefile
Time (mean ± σ): 8.470 s ± 0.049 s [User: 7.923 s, System: 0.547 s]
Range (min … max): 8.434 s … 8.605 s 10 runs
And with the patch at the bottom:
Benchmark #1: ./git-blame --ignore-revs-file hashes Makefile
Time (mean ± σ): 8.048 s ± 0.061 s [User: 7.899 s, System: 0.146 s]
Range (min … max): 7.987 s … 8.175 s 10 runs
That looks like a nice speedup, but why for system time alone? Malloc
overhead perhaps? And when I get rid of the intermediate oidset by
partially duplicating oidset_parse_file_carefully() it takes longer than
nine seconds. Weird. Perhaps a silly bug.

The first step would be to show a deprecation warning, wait a few
releases and then remove that feature. Not sure the effort and
potential user irritation is worth the saved conditional, doc lines
and test. (We already established that I'm lazy.)
