ignore whitespace/identation in annotate mode with Intelliji and git

Question

git blame , on a file , give for each line which was the last commit who have update the line.(like the annotate action on the IDE)

git blame -w do the same , but only if the commit do more than indentatation or whitespace.

My issue is, how can I ignore the whitespace with annotate on intelliji?

There is an option for that if I use SVN with Intelliji, but I cannot find-it on git.

IntelliJ uses git blame -w by default, as described in this question: IntelliJ annotate vs git blame

But there isn't an option to change this behaviour as it is hardcoded into the IDEA Git plugin.

An option to configure the behavior for git appeared in 2018.3 release.
