• Fix typos, add typos linter to CI #1057
• Transition to black Formatting + Updated PR Actions Workflow #726

Adding this file to aid in git blame operations. We're having it ignore some big repo-wide changes. One of them was when the project switched to black and reformatted almost every file, and the other was when we introduced a typo checker and fixed up all the typos throughout the repository.

GitHub will use this file in its blame views: https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/working-with-files/using-files/viewing-a-file#ignore-commits-in-the-blame-view

To use this file locally, you must opt-in to it:

git config blame.ignorerevsfile=.git-blame-ignore-revs

If you are using other tools that display blame information, they may work correctly by setting git config alone, or they may require additional configuration.
