Hi gents After yet another discussion about git in the #gentoo-dev channel tonight, the topic of merge commits came up for the umpteenth time.
We all seem to agree merge commits are really bad design, add clutter to the log graph after a while and should be banned altogether from reaching the central repository. As of now, no policy is in place yet to keep developers from pushing merge commits. What is the correct course of action? I would very much like it to be worded in a document (GLEP and/or Wiki page) so that confusion is avoided and we all are on the same page on this topic.
