  It's Magit! A Git Porcelain inside Emacs.

  

I like vc-annotate (probably because long ago I wrote the color scaling code for it). But recently I discovered magit has its own separate blame system: C-c M-g b. Then when you're in blame mode, use Ret on a line to visit the commit diff (at exactly the right place), or b to visit the file version as it was in that commit. In those older commit (blob) file buffers (which are also in blame mode), you can try r and f to see something unique: information about the commit that removed a given line, or information about the last commit which still had a given line. This allows you to blame a commit for having removed a line you still need. It's really impressive (as you'd expect). I just wish it had nice colors (started a discussion).
