I think a better name would be “git praise”



I'm sure you know this, but for younger readers, in Subversion 'praise' was an alias for 'blame'.

For neutrality, 'annotate’ was another alias.


One advantage that "git blame" has over possible alternatives such as "git credit", "git author", or "git praise", is that it's one character shorter and maybe faster to type.

For the same number of characters, I have heard of "git glory" as a possible alternative.
