I do not care much between blank and newline.
Both alone are equally horrible, in that the option would have no
effect when "git notes edit" is used and spawns an editor, or "git
notes append -m one -m two" is used and the command adds the second
paragraph whose text is "two".
Just like "git commit", the argument to each "-m" option becomes a
separate paragraph by default. I personally feel that those who
want to make them separate lines deserve to have an option like this
one, so that they can do
$ git notes add -m foo HEAD
$ git notes append \
--each-message-is-line-not-paragraph -m bar -m baz
$ git notes show HEAD
foo
bar
baz
but the point is "blank-line" or "newline" does not say which
newline in the resulting notes object you are mucking with. It is
not like in this example:
$ git notes add -m "title of the note"
$ git notes append --no-blank-line -m "body of the note
that span multiple
lines" HEAD
you are removving the blank lines embedded in the body of the
message, but from the option name, it is hard to guess that.
