Squashing Git Commits

[Lewis John Mcgibbney <le...@gmail.com>]

Hi Folks,
I would like to suggest that we developers and committers consider using
the squashing mechanism available and explained at the link below

http://gitready.com/advanced/2009/02/10/squashing-commits-with-rebase.html

It really helps with interpretation aspects of code review and also helps
improve the understating of provenance within Jira issues.

Thanks folks
Lewis

Agreed! I’ve had to do a lot of this work myself since Mike Joyce
challenged me to become a Git master ;) Challenge accepted.

But the more contributors can help to squash this stuff the better.
Otherwise, my advice is —include and —exclude are your friends :)

See #43 for how to use that.
