> The root cause appears to be that common git workflows produce new commits by "replaying" deltas in other branches as a part of a merge; these new commits are then considered distinct, and even flagged as such by the PushEvent GitHub webhook:

> It might be worth exploring how other software projects deal with this (and/or making use of existing hooks).  One such example:
