    I wouldn't say necessary, of course. It's -- at least -- my
    preference. For _my_ use case, it's useful. When I move code
    around, and that code is at the end of the file or to be put
    at the end of the file, I find it easier to already have a
    blank line there. That is... Because that's how I use vim to
    code.

    -_-;
    indeed.

    ```
    git config --global core.whitespace "-blank-at-eof"
    ```
