Raising this to the top level, as opposed to being inside another thread...
We had have a git reset --hard HEAD^X issued against the tomee-1.7.x branch. The upshot is that although the commits in question are in the repository somewhere, they no longer show up in the history for that branch. This appears to be a fix for a completely unintentional merge from master, but I think we should avoid resetting heads or deleting commits through any other means in the future. For reference, the discussion about this is here: http://tomee-openejb.979440.n4.nabble.com/today-s-git-commits-noise-td4680661.html Jon
