Hmm, the comments an RFC requests for would certainly be based on reviews
of the patch in question, so if the patch is known to be unsuitable for
reviewing, what would that tell us, I wonder ;-)?

Among the 700 lines added/deleted, 400 lines are from a single new file,
so what may benefit from splitting would be the changes to gitweb.perl but
it does not look so bad (I haven't really read the patch, though).

> Differences between 'blame' and 'blame_incremental' output:

Hmm, are these by design in the sense that "when people are getting
incremental blame output, the normal blame output format is unsuitable for
such and such reasons and that is why there have to be these differences",
or "the code happens to produce slightly different results because it is
implemented differently; the differences are listed here as due
diligence"?

There is no copyright assignment.  Everybody retains the own copyright on
their own work.

I think that is in line with what Certificate of Origin asks you to do.
