I'm not sure what you're trying to point me at. It's clear that from
an implementation view you need to blame HEAD^ if you need to know
which poeple should review your changes in HEAD. But IMHO that is an
implementation detail that should be hidden from the user. Like I
said, I think it would be much more natural if it worked by specifying
the commits that *I* introduced, and then lists all people to contact
for a review.

Thanks, but now I'm getting

$ git related b0783baacd20be7007df40cf274985c4863d63fb
fatal: ambiguous argument '\^b0783baacd20be7007df40cf274985c4863d63fb': unknown
revision or path not in the working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'

I've checked of course that the commit exists.
