Was going to post the exact same thing. I make use of this repeated git blame method all the time, and for everyone who is just learning this for the first time, you'll actually want to write `git blame <commit>~` to go back one commit from the commit hash in the blame, because otherwise you'll still get the same results on the line you're looking at.

Also, if you're using GitHub, their Blame view also a button that looks like a stack of rectangles between the commit information and the code. Clicking that will essentially do the same thing command-line git operation above.
