git blame --ignore-rev does not work

[Harrison McCullough <mccullough.harrison@gmail.com>]

What did you do before the bug happened?

1. Commit changes to <FILE>
2. Observe that this commit has a hash of <HASH>, e.g. through git rev-parse
   HEAD
3. Run `echo <HASH> > .git-blame-ignore-revs`
4. Run `git config blame.ignoreRevsFile .git-blame-ignore-revs`
5. Run `git blame <FILE>`
6. Run `git blame --ignore-revs-file=.git-blame-ignore-revs <FILE>`
7. Run `git blame --ignore-rev=<HASH> <FILE>`


What did you expect to happen? (Expected behavior)

The three git blame commands should attribute each line of the source file to a
commit, but none of those commits should be the one specified by <HASH>.


What happened instead? (Actual behavior)

All three git blame commands included lines attributed to <HASH>.


What's different between what you expected and what actually happened?

The commit identified by <HASH> was not ignored.


Anything else you want to add:

I tried this in a brand new repository and everything worked as expected. I do
not know why it is only failing in this repository. It is a large repository I
use for work, but I'm using the same version of Git in both places.
