@koushik-das oh, i understand your question better now. i would like to do
it on every commit. It makes the commit history clearer and it mitigates
conflict issues. when we ask people to rebase their PR we know for sure they
are getting everything that is committed. i would like for us to forward merge
every time we do a commit to previous branches.
In this case I will do the forward merge because I have other commits I
will merge today and if the forward merge is done right after the commit it
makes it easier to verify the forward merge was done when scanning the commit
history.
